The Dragomans Renaissance Research Platform represents a long-standing collaboration between the authors. The project explores the role of dragomans (diplomatic interpreter-translators) in mediating relations between the Ottoman Empire and its European neighbours from ca. 1550 to ca. 1730. The project leverages surrogates and transcriptions from multiple archival and secondary sources to produce a structured data set that can be queried using SPARQL. The Dragomans use case illuminates the potential of library-partnered DH projects, like other unique collections, to become machine-readable research data sets made available through generalized, sustainable architectures that also suit researcher needs for UI-driven query and display
