SYDNEY NOE’S COIN HOARDS PUBLISHED ELECTRONICALLY

The March 2016 Enews from the American Numismatic Society announced the availability of Noe's Coin Hoards as an Ebook. -Editor

1944.100.12601.obv Head of Apollo The first Ebook has been published to the ANS Digital Library, as part of the NEH/Mellon Humanities Open Book Program. Sydney Noe’s Coin Hoards is available to read in a browser or to download as an EPUB file for an EReader app. Through Linked Open Data methodologies, references to coins in our collection, hoards, or people, places, and things defined on Nomisma.org, Wikipedia, or other systems allow us to integrate this Ebook into other aspects of our digital collections.

For example, IGCH 1508 contains bibliographic references to Noe’s section on the "Saida Find" in Coin Hoards, and a mention of this hoard in one of Edward Newell’s research notebooks in our archives. Similarly, MANTIS’s functionality has been extended to draw annotations from our digital library and archives, e.g., 1944.100.12601, which was listed on a specific page in one of Newell's notebooks.

These advances are part of a broader effort to build a sophisticated and interlinked numismatic research system. Ethan Gruber, ANS Director of Data Science, will soon present at the Computer Applications in Archaeology conference in Oslo on this infrastructure topic.
