# Catalogue of Digital Editions
This research seeks to examine best practice in the field of digital editions by collating relevant evidence in a detailed catalogue of extant digital projects. The editions included in the **Catalogue** come from numerous sources and their selection follows basic criteria: the electronic texts can be ongoing or complete projects, born-digital editions or electronic reproductions of print volumes.More information:
* [What is the Catalogue of Digital Editions?](https://github.com/dig-Eds-cat/digEds_cat/wiki)
* [How to contribute to the Catalogue?](.github/CONTRIBUTING.md)## Affiliation(s)
This project's home is the UCL Centre for Digital Humanities. The **Catalogue** [Web Application](https://dig-ed-cat.acdh.oeaw.ac.at) is a collaboration with the Austrian Centre for Digital Humanities.
