Acta Palaeobotanica is an international journal publishing high quality contributions to palaeobotany and palynology. It is the only journal in Central and Eastern Europe focused on all fields of palaeobotanical and palynological investigations and publishes original palaeobotanical, palaeoecological, palaeophytogeographical, palynological, and archaeobotanical papers in addition to monographs, comprehensive review and discussion articles and book reviews. The journal is open to contributors from all over the world.

It is published regularly with one volume per year each comprising two numbered parts, printed in June (No. 1) and in December (No. 2). The language of the journal is English. All manuscripts to be published in the journal are peer reviewed by at least two referees, and after acceptance of corrected manuscripts printing time is only approximately 6 months.

Launched: Textual Communities

Textual Communities
We are pleased to announce today the full public release of Textual Communities. Textual Communities is an environment for the collaborative online creation of scholarly editions.

There are two public versions of Textual Communities:

·      The production version, https://textualcommunities.org

·      The sandbox version, https://textualcommunitessandbox.org

You can create your own account on the sandbox version, and experiment with it.

Textual Communities has the following distinctive features:
·      It is not an adaptation of any other system, but is built anew from the ground up;

·      It understands text as a collection of leaves distributed across a document tree and an entity tree. Accordingly, it can both present text page by page (or line by line), as parts of a document tree, and it can present text entity by entity, as a hierarchy of acts of eommunication  (hence, line 1 of the General Prologue of the Canterbury Tales), as parts of an entity tree;

·      It offers powerful collation tools, CollateX and the Collation Editor, permitting precise tailoring of the collation of any entity in muliple documents;

·      It includes tools for managing collaboration: to invite, supervise and monitor multiple collaborators;

·      It includes an IIIF image server, and can create editiable documents from IIIF manifests;

·      It provides an API giving access to all materials through URI resource descriptors.

The documentation at https://wiki.usask.ca/display/TC/Textual+Communitiesoffers a “Getting Started” guide, and various other documents.

We are grateful for the support of the Canada Foundation for Innovation, the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada, and the University of Saskatchewan.

News: More than 1 million images now publicly available at library.artstor.org!

More than 1 million images now publicly available at library.artstor.org!
Artstor logo
Good news! Artstor has made more than 1 million image, video, document, and audio files from public institutional collections freely available to everyone—subscribers and non-subscribers alike–at library.artstor.org. These collections are being shared by institutions who make their content available via JSTOR Forum, a tool that allows them to catalog, manage, and share digital media collections and make them discoverable to the widest possible audience.
These eclectic collections fall into a multitude of categories, including special collections, faculty research and fieldwork, and museum and gallery collections. By digitizing and sharing these local collections, institutions and scholars can make available a wealth of often fragile physical material that would be difficult to access except by visiting the site itself. Making a collection public also allows researchers to share their findings with the wider scholarly community, providing the opportunity for comparison and feedback, or for student artists to gain recognition for their work.  
Go to library.artstor.org now and begin exploring public content from hundreds of collections
Among the ways to navigste ArtStor images is a geographical brows function including for instance:
Egypt (37156)
Cyprus (5827)
Greece (28748)
 Italy (180165)
Turkey (33964)
Western Asia (106245)
