The Centre for Computing in the Humanities at King's College London is leading a team to digitise the Dead Sea Scrolls.

Quote:

Since the more than 15,000 Scroll fragments were photographed only once, in the 1950s, the Israel Antiquities Authority has convened an international committee of experts, led by Simon Tanner, to digitise the Scrolls for the web.
