Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) Tite
Creating a Benefit of Membership to Support Standards Development

A project with Daniel O'Donnell, Principal Investigator and with John Unsworth and Perry Trolard, Co-Principal Investigators on behalf of the Text Encoding Initiative Consortium. TEI Tite is a customized TEI schema designed by the authors of this proposal, and approved by the TEI, for use in working with keyboarding vendors. CIRSS' role in this project is contained in this quote from the proposal,

"Having developed the TEI Tite specification, what remains to be done is to negotiate a volume discount that is based on its use, and establish that discount as a benefit of membership in the TEI. In order to negotiate that discount, the TEI Consortium needs to be able to project the volume that it thinks it can provide, and to make that projection on the basis of something other than guesswork, we need to survey libraries, presses, and scholarly projects around the world to find out what pent-up demand exists, and at what price-point it might be released."

More information on this project will be presented as it becomes available.
