The NVS team is now assisting volume editors build NVS editions digitally–start to finish–using the back-end tools that Dr. Bryan Tarpley developed for the project. One of the tools, featured above, is a transcription tool that will help editors create plain text transcriptions of all witnesses (all of the important editions of any given play) for each NVS volume. Editions now in production include Richard III, The Two Gentlemen of Verona, The Merry Wives of Windsor, and Antony and Cleopatra (updates). With 12 additional editions in the production queue, the NVS team has a full agenda. More updates to come!
