Enabling innovative research with British Library digital collections

13 March 2014

50th Anniversary!

Today with the running of “103 Digitisation at British Library” we mark the 50th course provided in our staff Digital Scholarship Training Programme!

This internal staff training programme is one of the cornerstones of the Digital Research Team’s work at the British Library, and is one of the most rewarding things we get up to! It began in late 2012 as an initiative to give colleagues the space and opportunity to delve into and explore all the potential that digital has to offer in the research domain today. Since the first course we have had over 245 individual staff members attend one or more, with 653 seats filled over all! 

The programme continues to evolve but we wanted to share a snapshot of how we got started:

And a special thanks to all of our instructors who have made it such a success!
