Abstract of the talk :

Sciences in the 21st century are repeatedly described as data -intensive
sciences. In recent years this also applies to the humanit ies. However\, data-
intensive sciences are only more than a promise if they can be modelled. To
this end\, data must form a representativ e and balanced corpus\, it must be
possible to formalise\, visualise and re-use data. Libraries have large
quantities of reliable data tha t can be condensed into corpora\, formalised and
shared. Libraries th us become an essential part of a data-intensive
humanities. My talk o utlines the new ways of integrating libraries into
research processes in the humanities.
