eScriptorium is part of the Scripta, RESILIENCE and Biblissima+ projects, and has received funding from Université PSL and from The European Union's Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme under Grant Agreement no. 871127, from the Programme d'investissements d'avenir of the Agence Nationale de Recheche under Grant Reference no. ANR-21-ESRE-0005, as well as from other contributors listed below. Its goal is provide researchers in the humanities with an integrated set of tools to transcribe, annotate, translate and publish historical documents. The eScriptorium app itself is at the 'center'. It is a work in progress but will implement at least automatic transcriptions through kraken, indexation for complex search and filtering, annotation and some simple forms of collaborative working such as sharing and versioning.
