joanftroyano – THATCamp CHNM 2013 http://chnm2013.thatcamp.org The Humanities and Technology Camp Thu, 03 Apr 2014 15:36:28 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.9.12 where is DH scholarship on the web? http://chnm2013.thatcamp.org/06/06/where-is-dh-scholarship-on-the-web/ http://chnm2013.thatcamp.org/06/06/where-is-dh-scholarship-on-the-web/#comments Thu, 06 Jun 2013 20:01:33 +0000 http://chnm2013.thatcamp.org/?p=427

<a href="http://digitalhumanitiesnow.org" target="_blank">Digital Humanities Now</a> and the <a href="http://journalofdigitalhumanities.org" target="_blank">Journal of Digital Humanities</a> are experimental publications that aim to surface digital humanities scholarship from the open web and highlight work that moves the field forward. But where is this work and how can we discover it? We have a particular editorial and technical method, but are there other possibilities?

It seems fitting to invite an open conversation at THATCamp about how these publications run and what you think we're missing. Are there additional methods or sources we could use to monitor the field and discover non-textual work in particular? Do you have any feedback or suggestions for how we can improve these publications? This could turn into a "what's up with DHNow and JDH" session or we could think broadly about where DH scholarship is and how we find it (and build on it, review it, reference it, etc.). I look forward to the conversation!

new ways to publish humanities scholarship? http://chnm2013.thatcamp.org/06/04/new-ways-to-publish-humanities-scholarship/ http://chnm2013.thatcamp.org/06/04/new-ways-to-publish-humanities-scholarship/#comments Tue, 04 Jun 2013 15:20:20 +0000 http://chnm2013.thatcamp.org/?p=445

Let’s get together and brainstorm new possibilities for publishing humanities scholarship. If we’re not satisfied with digital versions of journal articles and monographs, what alternatives can we propose? Are there any models that look promising or interesting experiments (like Scalar) in the works? Let’s dream up what would be exciting and useful without getting bogged down in a conversation about tenure and promotion. If scholarly communication is the goal — rather than checking boxes — what do we want to do?

This conversation could focus on the specific challenges of digital humanities scholarship, or approach humanities scholarship more broadly. But let’s focus on the production and dissemination of scholarship, not on getting credit.
