PRISMS is a flexible Open Scholarship platform with the
potential to aggregate all digitised primary source material and the
associated scholarship in a semantic network. PRISMS currently hosts
over 75,000 digital editions of rare books and manuscripts from earliest times
to the 20th century. Learn more...
Get the most out of PRISMS in three easy steps!
1. Create and aggregate your primary source materials and scholarship:
search and browse tens of thousands of digital editions already included;
retrieve and bookmark editions to easily resume where you left off;
add new editions from trusted repositories, and
enrich them with transcriptions, translations,
apparatus, and other accompanying resources;
add your own external resources to editions—which are then embedded in PRISMS—for example, add a facsimile from one source, which can then be viewed alongside a transcription from a different source.
2. Annotate, compare, and connect your sources and secondary materials:
view multiple editions side-by-side in a flexible workbench;
embed facsimiles, translations, scholarship, performances, such
as IIIF manifests, PDFs, video or audio, websites, and other relevant online resources;
create notebooks to record a transcription, add a
commentary or bibliography, or keep a personal research record;
use the available component tools, such as adding annotations to texts and images;
flexibly add named entities within and across texts;
visualise texts with Voyant Tools right
within PRISMS;
use the integrated graph view to collaboratively
model, visualise, explore, and enhance relationships;
use a variety of means, including the ontologically-underpinned graph view
itself, to create knowledge.
3. Publish your edition and scholarship:
organize and keep a structured overview of your
scholarly work (bookmarking, annotating, modelling,
writing, organising, sharing) with the workbench toolbox;
place your own scholarly digital edition in an
ever-expanding, discoverable network of full-text primary and secondary resources;
flexibly, download, share, and publish your contributions for the benefit of collaborative scholarship online;
participate in and benefit from a community of open
scholarship practitioners, and engage in resource
sharing, collaboration, and knowledge exchange.

Open Scholarship for the benefit of all.
