Call KB Researcher-in-Residence 2022

Are you an early career data scientist, social scientist, computer scientist, humanities scholar, or more simply put, a researcher working with or interested in our digital collections, such as the web archive, 100 million pages digitised text or ground-truth sets? Then the KB, National Library of the Netherlands is looking for you! 

The KB is seeking proposals for its fully paid Researcher-in-Residence program in 2022. This program offers a unique chance for early career researchers of all disciplines to work in the library with the Digital Scholarship team and KB data. In return, they learn how researchers use the data of the KB, what kinds of possibilities it offers and how we can improve its services.

You will be assisted by a research software engineer, an advisor, and collection and data specialists. The output of the project will be incorporated in the experimental platform of the KB, the KB Lab and is ideally beneficial for a larger (scholarly) community.
