a social network analysis of publishers, writers, manuscripts, and booksellers in the late-fifteenth through eighteenth century England.

The POWRR Tool Grid v2 provides a set of interactive views designed to help practitioners identify and select tools that they need to solve digital preservation challenges. more detail on the COPTR wiki.
The POWRR Tool Grid v2 provides a set of interactive views designed to help practitioners identify and select tools that they need to solve digital preservation challenges. Everything in the Grid is hyperlinked, so simply click through the displays until you find the information you are looking for. Clicking on the name of a specific preservation tool will reveal more detail on the COPTR wiki.
This is a grid, created by POWRR, that looks at 24 different features, such as ingest, processing, access, storage, maintenance, and cost, for about 50 digital preservation tools. The tools range from simple tools to full digital preservation systems, from ACE to Xena. This tool is very informative.
the Google Books corpus of American English, 155 billion words in size. limited to what you can do via the website at Brigham Young University. The easy thing to do is type in a word or phrase and see its frequency by decade, going back to the 1810s. The interface allows you to look for collocates (words that go with other words), view charts showing relative word frequency in the corpus by decade, handles parts of speech, and gives you various limits and display options. Other kinds of analysis that might be done with text corpora can’t be done through the interface.
