Mettre en Récit les Données Culturelles des Bibliothèques Numériques: Exposition Virtuelle et Recherche-Création

Abstract

This article examines the possible narrative dimension of cultural data in digital libraries. On the one hand, it examines the specific forms of editorialization that are virtual exhibitions. On the other hand, it restores the experiments of mediation devices (touch table and virtual reality headset) conducted as part of a research-creation program of the French National Library devoted to the editorialization of digital collections. The narrative is apprehended as a form of knowledge and a way of transmitting cultural legacy that can give meaning and coherence to an expanding information world.
