Libraries, Archives, Museums, and Historical Science DESCRIPTION:The collections of memory institutions continue to form the basis of historical research. Libraries, archives and research museums are – in both the virtual and the real world – neutral places to which scholars can retreat from the battle of interpretation in order to focus on the critical analysis of research questions. While this basic constant still describes the relationship between memory institutions and historical science in the digital age, self-conception, responsibilities and service portfolios of heritage institutions are changing as rapidly as research questions and methodological approaches of historical science. At the same time, the debate on the role of libraries, archives and museums in the digital world is as old as digitisation itself, gathering even more momentum with the rise of the Digital Humanities. Within this framework, historians also reflect how the discipline itself is changing in view of digital scientific communication, Open Access, Big Data or machine learning. Most recently this reflection process has become even more intense due to the development of the Specialised Information Services (FID) and the National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI). The panel will interlink these two lines of discussion in order to evaluate how memory institutions will be able to best support historical science in the future. After initial statements of the panelists the roles of retrodigitisation, Open Access, licensing of electronic resources, Specialised Information Services, National Research Data Infrastructure and digital artifacts as epistemic things will be discussed. This will also leave room for the historians to articulate their demands on the digital agenda of memory institutions. Der Beitrag Memory Institutions in the Digital Age.
