Abstract

The Prior Virtual Lab is an online research collaboration which aims to
transcribe and make public manuscripts, notes and letters by (or sent to)
the logician and philosopher Arthur N. Prior (1914-1969). This article
explores and discusses the Danish Prior Internet Resources (PIR), which
the Prior Virtual Lab is part of, and argues that it constitutes a Virtual
Research Environment (VRE). The article also argues that a significant
challenge for future work with the PIR is applying the knowledge of the
iHumanist. In particular, we shall argue that part of what is required
when moving into the digital humanities is a shift from a needy-user
paradigm (emphasizing search for missing information) to an explorability
paradigm (which emphasizes serendipity).
