This Project Grant award from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Office of Digital Humanities (CFDA 45.169) provides $149,518 to Emory University to support the continued growth of the POST45 Data Collective, a peer-reviewed, open-access repository for literary and cultural data from 1945 to the present.

The grant will enable Emory to develop a comprehensive data style guide and protocols to improve the interoperability of data in the collective, particularly book- and author-related data. This will involve developing computational methods to fetch relevant book and author identifiers and merge them across datasets. The resulting resources will be published open-access on the POST45 Data Collective website and shared with other emerging data collectives in the field. Through this project, Emory aims to enhance cultural data documentation, interoperability, and reach in the humanities.

A sub-award of $100,686 has also been provided to the University of Washington to contribute expertise and resources to the project.
