About me
Experienced digital manager now specializing in manuscripts, rare editions and digital humanities. Seamlessly integrating historical treasures with modern innovations.
In my role at the intersection of digital humanities and rare books, I'm a hybrid professional in both ancient texts and modern technology. Whether it's in an auction house, a library, a bookshop, or a museum, my work would serve as a critical bridge between the past and the present. Essentially, I may amplify the impact of historical documents, contributing to both academic discourse and broader cultural understanding.
What I'm doing
-
Digitization
My work can involve digitizing manuscripts and rare books, making them both preserved and accessible in today's digital landscape.
-
Cataloging
I'm skilled in cataloging and annotating historical texts, making them easily searchable. I also know my way around state-of-the-art databases that use high-res imaging and detailed metadata.
-
Market Research
I can help with comprehensive market analyses to gauge the demand and valuation trajectory for rare books and manuscripts. This involves a synthesis of historical auction data, current market conditions, and collector interests to strategize effective placement in upcoming auctions.
-
Preliminary Evaluation
Upon acquisition, I can perform an initial assessment of a manuscript or book, scrutinizing its provenance, physical condition, and bibliographic attributes from open sources. This evaluation serves as the foundation for further in-depth research and analysis, setting the stage for its eventual cataloging and valuation.
-
Translation
I've translated some correspondence between notable figures from the Russian Empire and the USSR into French.
-
Website development
I can create and maintain a website for a bookshop or special digital project.
