Solution for Management of Digitized Text Resources
VIRR is a virtual research platform for the digital preservation, enhancement and dissemination of cultural heritage content like images and texts.
Main Functionalities• Browse collection and textual entities
• Detailed viewing of single pages
• Online editing workspace for structural content Create, edit, and publish table of contents for each textual entity
Build logical combination between scans and structural elements
Generate original pagination
Enrich structural elements with descriptive metadata
Edit and publish bibliographic metadata
• On the fly METS export to the DFG Viewer (http://dfg-viewer.de)
Upcoming Functionalities• Advanced search within all metadata
• Compilation and export of images (as jpgs or within one pdf)
• Integration of Digilib (enhanced viewing environment: zoom, navigate, etc.)
• Integration and storage of transcriptions
• Linkage of ViRR to other relevant online resources (e.g. OPAC of the institute)
• Content enrichment via annotations
Partners• Max Planck Institut for European Legal History, Frankfurt
Legal artifacts of the period of the Holy Roman Empire, http://test-virr.mpdl.mpg.de:8080/virr

Figure 1: Development approach of a software solution
Software solutions are e-science web applications based on the eSciDoc infrastructure.
Solutions are mainly about using and re-using scientific data. This will be realized through:• Data retrieval and data enrichment (metadata management)• Collaborative online working environment• Data persistence
Versioning Persistent identifier (PID)
• Interoperability Following Dublin Core Metadata Initiative (DCMI) recommendations Defining DCMI Abstract Model (DCAM) and Description Set Profile (DSP)

Development Approach• The software is first developed in cooperation with one institute to serve a specific research
scenario based on a particular data set and then is extended to cover a larger scope of
scientific scenarios.• An instance is a working version of the generic solution, configured for one specific data set.• The generic solution is extendable (“extended solution”) to add new specific features.
Software Usage• Open source project
Code source accessible and documented Usage of Common Development and
