Seminars and Courses

Fragmentarium serves the classroom, not merely by presenting subject matter for presentations and research projects, but by turning training exercises into scholarly contributions on a global scale.

From the launch of the Digital Laboratory in 2017, Fragmentarium has featured prominently in courses, seminars, and modules on medieval paleography and codicology, archival and library science, digital humanities, and fragmentology. Larger groups of students use a dedicated school server to explore the front and back end of a cutting-edge Digital Humanities platform. Seminars and advanced students have been able to use Fragmentarium to publish descriptions and images of fragments, both those from local collections and those held in institutions around the world.
