Imagine having an enormous library housing materials from the past thousands of years at your fingertips, with new information added each day. Plus a vast art gallery, along with a studio with electronic tools offering new ways to create. And all this available to anyone with a computer and Internet access.
Who would own such a thing, and who might have access to it? Who could add to it? How can we make sense of the mass of information growing daily online?
These resources already exist in today's online world, and the questions they raise will be discussed during Bowling Green State University's Digital Cultures in the Age of Big Data summer institute, May 13-17. The institute is free, and the university is inviting community members to participate, whether they are newcomers to the subject or have experience with digital data.
