access to program file or ocr result?

Excellent dataset! I'm from Music & Technology Lab in academic institute, and we're interested in analyzing the performance history of New York Phil using machine learning approaches. Would it be possible that we can access the file (e.g., .jpeg, tiff etc) of programs, instead of preview using web browser? And have you done OCR yet? Is it possible that we can get access to the results of OCR? Thank you

Hello,

Apologies for the delay in my response.

We are interested in learning more about your research. Could you share more information with us? Please email us at digitalarchives@nyphil.org at your convenience.

We have done OCR on most, if not all, of our Programs. In the browser you can access the OCR data by clicking the icon at the bottom right of the viewer (see screenshot below).

We are also planning to add IIIF support to the Digital Archives, which may be helpful to you. This will take us some time to implement, but we can let you know when it’s ready for testing.

Thanks for the reply. I've sent details about our research to your email, and hope that we can potentially collaborate for the further exploration of the data!
