Description
From the introduction to the project pages on ECHO (accessed 2016-05-23):
The Archimedes Project deals with the entire tradition of mechanical knowledge that is so closely associated with the name of Archimedes and his achievements. The Archimedes Project is a proof-of-concept endeavor for an open digital research library in the history of science that proposes to combine research and dissemination in a new way. It closely integrates scholarly work and technical developments.
