Abstract

In this article we offer some analytical comments on the digitization of the National Library of Israel (NLI), which has been converting materials into digital formats since 2007. This research draws upon Actor-Network Theory and is based on participant observation within the Digitization Center of the NLI. Specifically, we ask how human and non-human actors—namely scanning technicians and graphic designers, scanners, manuscripts and ephemera—are co-embedded in the production of the corpus that will likely be the basis for historical accounts in the future; and what their inter-relationships can tell us about the digitization of heritage.

在以色列国家图书馆实践数字化

在本文中，我们对以色列国家图书馆(NLI)的数字化提供一些分析性评论，该图书馆自2007年以来一直将资料转换为数字格式。本研究借鉴了行动者网络理论，并以国家理工学院数字化中心的参与者观察为基础。具体来说，我们要问人类和非人类的演员——即扫描技术人员和平面设计师、扫描仪、手稿和蜉蝣——如何共同嵌入到语料库的生产中，这些语料库可能是未来历史记载的基础;以及它们之间的相互关系能告诉我们的关于遗产数字化的信息。
