Today people make novel uses of social networking and other internet software to respond to tragic events in creative and dynamic ways. Since shortly after the April 16, 2007 shootings at Virginia Tech, this research group has integrated digital library, data and text mining, information visualization, and social network analysis techniques to help with understanding and recovery from this tragic school crisis. This proposal is meant to research and develop a next- generation domain specific digital library software suite, the Crisis, Tragedy and Recovery (CTR) -toolkit, building upon 17 years of work on digital libraries, as well as expertise in information retrieval, data and text mining, database management, human-computer interaction, and sociology. Advanced intelligent information integration methods have not been sufficiently applied to this domain. The impact of events is felt over extended periods, requiring longitudinal perspectives to understand their complexity and inter-dependencies. Consequently, with the Internet Archive and other partners, the group will begin to create CTRnet, an integrated distributed digital library network for providing a rich suite of CTR-related services. Such work will help ensure that further tragic events might be better understood and prevented.

如今，人们以新颖的方式利用社交网络和其他互联网软件以创造性和动态的方式应对悲剧事件。 自 2007 年 4 月 16 日弗吉尼亚理工大学枪击事件发生后不久，该研究小组就整合了数字图书馆、数据和文本挖掘、信息可视化和社交网络分析技术，以帮助理解这场悲惨的学校危机并从中恢复。 该提案旨在研究和开发下一代特定领域的数字图书馆软件套件，即危机、悲剧和恢复 (CTR) 工具包，该工具包以 17 年的数字图书馆工作经验以及信息检索、数据和数据方面的专业知识为基础。以及文本挖掘、数据库管理、人机交互和社会学。 先进的智能信息集成方法尚未充分应用于该领域。 事件的影响是在很长一段时间内感受到的，需要纵向视角来理解它们的复杂性和相互依赖性。因此，该集团将与互联网档案馆和其他合作伙伴一起开始创建 CTRnet，这是一个集成的分布式数字图书馆网络，用于提供丰富的 CTR 相关服务。此类工作将有助于确保更好地理解和预防更多的悲剧事件。
