The TextGridLab has been developed in collaboration with humanities scholars and reflect the needs of researchers who want to explore the scientific possibilities offered by digital methods individually or in a community of geographically distributed scientists. The tools and services available in TextGrid are flexible and expandable and can be adapted to different research methods. In addition, these tools are maintained and updated to ensure long-term availability and usability of the research data.

The Service Digitale Editionen of the SUB Göttingen is relying on this component.
