Am 30. August wurde die Online-Plattform Historical Maps of Southeast Asia gestartet (via Archivalia und library.universiteitleiden.nl):
«The platform provides access to over 1,400 digitised maps of Southeast Asia from the collections of the National Library Board Singapore (307 maps), Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library – Yale University (150 maps), Bodleian Libraries – University of Oxford (387 maps ) and Leiden University Libraries (UBL) (593 maps). The platform is limited to maps made before 1900. The new platform increases the availability of historical maps of Southeast Asia for researchers and the public. The project was led by Yale-NUS College in Singapore and funded through a Thematic Grant from Singapore’s Ministry of Education Social Science Research (SSR).»
