Abstract

The National Library of Scotland has recently launched a Digital Scholarship Service, to enable new, computational uses of the collections. With three elements to the service – making data available; external collaboration and engagement; and internal culture change and skills training – the Library is seeking to equip both its collections and staff for advances in technology and research methods.
