AHDS Performing Arts was a part of the Arts and Humanities Data Service providing digital resources to the performing arts in the United Kingdom, and it was based in Glasgow. It supported research, learning and teaching in the areas of music, dance, theatre, radio, film, and television with high quality and dependable digital resources. It did 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. From October 2005 until the end of March 2007 AHDS Performing Arts was 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.
