The EMERGENCE project is supported by a distinguished international advisory board, our GEFERAN
[= Gathering of Experts for Feedback, Encouragement and Reflection / Advisory Network]. These are scholars working in the fields of
Old English Studies, the Reception of Old English Language and Literature and/or History of the Humanities, with an interest in the
EMERGENCE project. We regularly (once or twice a year) their your input and feedback on elements of the project's bibliographical and
relational database (e.g., its scope, data model, categories and usage features) and other outputs of the project (e.g. in the form of
peer reviewing publications of the project). They are sent a status report of the project twice a year and are invited to attend or contribute
to project activities (e.g., conferences and online lecture series). We may also ask their help to provide access to (or take photographs of)
materials in local archives and/or libraries.
