Clustering & enhancing digital archives for research

Led by the University of East London (UEL) CEDAR will further enhance and embed the
East London Theatre Archive (ELTA) into three popular Theatre Studies programmes at Royal Holloway, Nottingham and Sheffield universities.
This cross institutional project will promote national dissemination of an already successful and unique archive. It will offer a large testing field for the development of enhanced content and usability - specifically the updating and addition of metadata and the enhancement of the user interface.
ELTA will also be enhanced by its clustering with the three partner
HEIs own theatre digitisation projects to develop a cross project browsing and search capability. This will aid the identification of gaps in pre-existing clustered data and the need for digitisation of additional content.
