Հայոց գրավոր մշակույթի համալիր թվայնացումը՝ որպես պետական զարգացման գրավական
(Հայաստանի ազգային գրադարան / National Library of Armenia, 2023) Հովհաննիսյան, Գայանե
At different stages of the development of civilization, the languages that could make the transi-tion to the new technologies of science and communication have flourished and developed. The article discusses several conceptual issues dedicated to the issue of the continuity of Armenian written culture and introduces the steps towards the digitization of Armenian, both taken and anticipated. Armenian written culture, from epigraphy to the present state, is the result of the concerted efforts of scientists who are dedicated and deeply aware of the challenges thrown by time and their supporting governors and businessmen. We must create conditions so that our language gets the opportunity to adapt to the changes dictated by the environment and new media and promote it to develop in the new digital con-ditions of communication because it is the direct repository of our linguistic consciousness and self-awareness. In the first part of the article, parallels are drawn between the Industrial Revolution and the stages of written culture development. The second part presents the projects and initiatives that have been launched toward the digitization processing of the Armenian language and corpora.
