EpiDoc represents a growing, global collaboration of humanists and information technologists (a.k.a., the “EpiDoc Community”) whose joint aim is the creation of flexible but rigorous standards and tools for the digital encoding and interchange of scholarly and educational editions of ancient texts, especially those preserved on stone, metal and other durable materials, as well as on papyrus.
