Summary/Abstract: In the humanities, analysis of primary and secondary literature is an important area of research work. Besides language corpora, digital libraries, which digitized approximately 98.7 million pages in the Czech Republic between 1992 and 2022, can be considered a suitable source of written texts in recent years. The article presents an example from abroad and gives a brief overview of data sources in the Czech environment. It focuses on the recently completed DL4DH project, which aims to offer researchers access to large volumes of data from the Kramerius digital library in standardized formats (plain text, ALTO, CSV/TSV, TEI, JSON) not only through a new web application but also through a REST API. To make the subsequent analysis of the publications as easy as possible, the downloaded data can include enrichment data from the UDPipe and NameTag tools developed and operated by the LINDAT/CLARIAH-CZ research infrastructure.
