Sorry for taking a while to respond Matt, busy week. Initially the resources would be journals, databases, galleries, digital collections, language learning tools, dictionaries, statistical yearbooks, and similar online resources for China Studies. I have a Pinboard list for the sorts of things I plan to add: http://pinboard.in/u:davesgonechina/t:zongmu/ The goal is to have a curated collection of links to collections (not crawl every item, that can be a later project), with faceted search so that users can narrow down on resources of a particular format, time period, geographic region, etc. Dave On Sat, Jul 27, 2013 at 3:03 AM, Matthew Sherman <[log in to unmask]>wrote: > Just to move your discussion along a bit, plus I think it sounds > pretty interesting, what sort of resources are you talking about. > Know what you are working with can give everyone a better idea on what > schema's would work best.
