Resumen: Se revisa y discute el concepto de edición digital académica (EDA), así como las diversas denominaciones empleadas para hacer referencia a la misma. El estudio indaga en el alcance de los estándares de calidad planteados para este tipo de edición y explora los softwares para la publicación. Se completa el trabajo con un análisis evaluativo de una muestra de aplicaciones, profundizando en sus características, en los condicionantes sobre las interfaces de usuario a las que dan acceso y en su adecuación a los estándares. Las conclusiones insisten en la urgencia de evaluar de forma crítica y sistemática el software de edición. Se destaca positivamente el desarrollo paulatino de software abierto e interoperable, asentado en la codificación de los textos siguiendo la Text encoding initiative (TEI), que optimizan la reutilización y preservación de los datos. Sin embargo, la perdurabilidad de las interfaces web y la sostenibilidad de estos proyectos digitales requieren infraestructuras de investigación adecuadas, para lo que se propone promover sinergias con bibliotecas y editoriales tradicionales, entre otros mediadores. Por último, para avanzar en la adecuación de los modelos de edición al paradigma digital, se subraya la necesidad de consensuar patrones de visualización de EDAs, por parte de la comunidad académica, así como de emprender estudios de usuarios que garanticen la adaptación de las EDAs al público objetivo al que se dirigen.
Abstract: The digital scholarly edition (DSE) concept is reviewed and discussed, as well as the various denominations used to refer to it. The study investigates the scope of the quality standards set for this type of edition and explores the software available for its publication. The work is completed with an evaluative analysis of a sample of applications, delving into their characteristics, the constraints on the user interfaces to which they give access, and how well they meet the standards. The conclusions confirm the urgent need to critically and systematically evaluate edition software. The gradual development of open and interoperable software stands out as a positive result, based on the coding of texts following the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI), which optimizes data reuse and preservation. However, the durability of web interfaces and the sustainability of these digital projects require adequate research infrastructures, for which it is proposed to promote synergies with libraries and traditional publishers, among other mediators. Finally, to advance with the adaptation of publishing models to the digital paradigm, the need for the academic community to agree on DSE display formats is underlined, as well as to undertake user studies that guarantee the adaptation of DSEs to the target audience they address.
