Request for Proposals: Early Access web development, Civil War Governors of Kentucky Digital Documentary Edition
Kentucky Historical Society
Frankfort, Ky

The Kentucky Historical Society seeks proposals for the web development of the
Early Access phase of the Civil War Governors of Kentucky (CWG-K) Digital
Documentary Edition. CWG-K seeks a stand-alone, Omeka
website hosted by the Kentucky Historical Society (KHS). This website will
provide access to approximately 10,000 historical documents through digital
scans and searchable transcriptions. Users will access the documents by
browsing through document collections and by operating keyword searches.

  
Early Access will also lay the foundation for the development of the full
CWG-K interface. The full interface will incorporate digital analytical tools
including social network analysis and geographic information systems. After
the completion of the Early Access interface, CWG-K seeks a detailed plan of
work for the development of this more robust research platform, including: a
TEI-XML schema, suggested modifications to the social and geographical
networking capability of an open-source FileMaker database, and a detailed
analysis of potential web interface platforms.

  
The full RFP can be found at http://civilwargovernors.org/early-access-
rfp/. **Proposals are due by Oct. 1, 2015.**
