Due to the epidemiological situation, this event was held online.

Images are an essential part of humanities research. They are analysed and published in disciplines such as art history, archaeology, history, theatre studies, and musicology. The “digital turn” has opened up countless new research avenues—from algorithmic analysis to making image collections available to research communities worldwide.
Images are an essential part of humanities research. They are analyzed and published in disciplines such as art history, archaeology, history, theatre studies, and musicology. The “digital turn” has opened up countless new research avenues—from algorithmic analysis to making image collections available to research communities worldwide.

This workshop put **digital and digitised images** at the centre. Beyond showcasing new digital possibilities, it focused on a critical discussion of opportunities and risks in working with images. Libraries increasingly play a key role here: as service providers and as operators of infrastructure for image analysis. Together, we discussed which infrastructures and services researchers will need in the future and what new research questions these enable.

Texts are at the heart of much humanities research. Their digital preparation and processing has therefore become a broad and intensively developed field within the Digital Humanities. Since the introduction of HTML and the World Wide Web, Humanities scholars have been working on the annotation, preparation, and visualisation of textual data in digital environments.
Texts are at the heart of much humanities research. Their digital preparation and processing has therefore become a broad and intensively developed field within the Digital Humanities. Since the introduction of HTML and the World Wide Web, Humanities scholars have been working on the annotation, preparation, and visualization of textual data in digital environments.

Today, machine-learning methods in **Natural Language Processing (NLP)** add a new dimension: they enable the extraction of information and the quantitative comparison of texts. In this workshop, we explored current debates and methods with a particular focus on applications for participants’ own research questions. Short expert inputs alternated with hands-on sessions.

Revert post dates to YYYY.MM.DD format.

Although the PR objective mentions converting post frontmatter dates to ISO 8601 format, the repository's rules strictly mandate that post frontmatter must use the date field in YYYY.MM.DD format. This ensures consistency with listing configurations across the site. As per coding guidelines: "Posts must use frontmatter with title, author, date (in YYYY.MM.DD format)". Please revert these to align with the required configuration contract.
