AHDS Performing Arts

AHDS Performing Arts is a part of the Arts and Humanities Data Service providing digital resources to the performing arts in the United Kingdom, and is based in Glasgow. It supports research, learning and teaching in the areas of music, dance, theatre, radio, film, and television with high quality and dependable digital resources. It does this by facilitating the curation and long term preservation of digital data, and by promoting good practice in data creation and in access to and use of digital performing arts collections. Since October 2005 the AHDS Performing Arts has been based in the Humanities Advanced Technology and Information Institute (HATII) at the University of Glasgow.

Many AHDS Performing Arts collections are freely available online for both educational and private use.
