The spring school is co-organized by the Austrian Centre for Digital Humanities and Cultural Heritage at the Austrian Academy of Sciences and the Centre for Information Modelling – Austrian Centre for Digital Humanities at the University of Graz, and is funded by CLARIAH-AT and supported by the H2020 Project ELEXIS.
