At this interactive webinar Aneta Plzáková and Maria Dermentzi will present the current state of the EHRI-CZ Portal, highlighting both conceptual and practical aspects of the project. Participants will learn about the types of data being integrated, their integration workflows, methods for harmonisation and linking, and the technical and methodological challenges involved in large-scale aggregation. The session will also include a demonstration of selected portal features and an opportunity to provide feedback that will inform future development.
The webinar is intended not only for digital humanities specialists and data professionals, but also for archivists, historians, educators, and anyone interested in new ways of exploring Holocaust-related sources and historical data.
Aneta Plzáková: studied information science and library science at the Faculty of Arts of Charles University. Since 2008, she has worked at the Terezín Initiative Institute, where she has been involved in the administration and development of the Holocaust Victims Database and the coordination of digitisation and documentation projects. Among other things, she participated in the creation of the educational portal holocaust.cz, the Terezín Album project, and the documentation of Roma Holocaust victims.
Since 2021, she has been working at the Masaryk Institute and Archives of the Czech Academy of Sciences, where she focuses on the management and interconnection of historical data, with an emphasis on Holocaust victim data and geospatial data. Together with her colleagues, she is developing the interactive map application MemoMap and is involved in preparing the Czech Node’s EHRI Portal, which links Holocaust data from Czech and foreign institutions.
Maria Dermentzi: is a digital humanities researcher affiliated with EHRI-CZ. She is also the director of Toolbox 21, a company offering custom software solutions and consulting on the use of AI in the humanities and social sciences.
Previously, she was a researcher at UVSQ – Université Paris-Saclay, and before that at King’s College London, where she developed tools for historical research within the European Holocaust Research Infrastructure.
