Beschreibung
The present Year Book of the project Text Database and Dictionary of Classic Mayan (University of Bonn) includes publications that members and associates of the research project have issued on the website www.mayawoerterbuch.de. The first volume gathers eleven research reports, working papers, research notes as well as a selection of web contents. In addition to the electronic distribution format the project will make a selection of its digital resources (published on its website www.mayawoerterbuch.de) periodically available as an e-book and a printed volume. This web-to-print initiative is part of the project's long term preservation and information dissemination strategy, combining the traditional publication formats with digital distribution of research data under the label of CC-BY.
