MoEML is pleased to publish the introduction to Tye Landels’s series of posts, Georeferencing the Early Modern Book Trade. In these posts, Landels reflects on the question, how can book historians use digital tools such as GIS and TEI to analyze spatial data points in bibliographies of early modern London books? This question leads Landels to explore the importance of analyzing the geography of the book, the structures and languages required to trace such geographies, and the potentials inherent in making this data available and accessible in digital forms. Landels’s interest in these areas inspired him to develop a template for a searchable georeferenced database for early modern books and, in collaboration with Janelle Jenstad and the Shakeosphere team at the University of Iowa (Blaine Greteman and David Eichman), develop a process for extracting geographic information from the imprints of early modern books.
