Stationers' Register Online: A Case Study of a Byte-Reduced TEI Schema for Digitization (tei_corset)

This article examines the process of customization, digitization, up-conversion, and proofreading that took place as part of the Stationers' Register Online (SRO) project at the University of Oxford. This pilot SRO project received institutional funding to digitize the first four volumes of the...
