  24. An article I co-wrote with @Kath_burton and Catherine Cocks was posted Friday: Recognizing and harnessing the transformational power of persistent identifiers (PIDs) for publicly-engaged scholars - content.iospress.com/articles/

    Abstract: While more recognizable publishing models continue to be favored across academic research and publishing systems, the diverse forms of knowledge emerging from publicly-engaged projects derived from working directly with and for communities requires novel and more dynamic publishing solutions. This article considers how the appropriate application of metadata and persistent identifiers to the processes and outputs of engaged scholarship are required to support the goals of the publicly-engaged humanities, and potentially lead to faster and more effective forms of impact for the people and places involved.

  27. The HCommons group Publishing and the Publicly Engaged Humanities and the Andrew W. Mellon Seminar on Public Engagement and Collaborative Research from the Center for the Humanities at the CUNY Graduate Center are collaborating on a project designed to investigate the place of academic and extra-academic publication in U.S. public humanities research, teaching, and programming. The project will document and analyze the ways in which different modes of publication have impacted academic and public life.

    The results of the project will be presented at the 2023 National Humanities Conference in Indianapolis, IN and prepared for wider distribution and further engagement as we work towards defining publishing solutions for publicly engaged scholars.

  28. Schon #PublicHumanities oder noch #WissKomm?

    @msiemund reflektiert bei ➡ Public Humanities über den Mehrwert des Konzeptes #PublicDH, das den Diskurs zwischen Wissenschaft und Öffentlichkeit stark macht, grenzt es zur klassischen #Wissenschaftskommunikation ab und gibt Handlungsempfehlungen für digitale Geisteswissenschaftler:innen:

  29. Thanks to @msucal for covering our new OER: New Open Educational Resource Focuses on Values-Based Scholarly Communication - cal.msu.edu/news/new-open-educ

    The #OER can be found at publiclyengagedpublishing.org/.

    A new open educational resource (OER) created at Michigan State University aims to increase understanding of how a values-based approach to scholarly communication can address the challenges of publishing publicly engaged scholarship, with particular emphasis on humanities and social sciences.

    This new OER, Publishing Values-based Scholarly Communication, is a collaboration between members of the @humetricshss, which supports the creation of values-based frameworks to guide all kinds of scholarly processes, and the Publishing and Public Humanities Working Group, whose working paper identifies challenges and model practices associated with publishing engaged work in the humanities.

  35. So #introduction is a thing, I see, so here goes. I write about #disability #carework #technology #modernism #radio #literature #Ireland. Writing a #memoir but passionately hate talking about myself. Currently a #publichumanities fellow at #sarahlawrence where I teach undergrads alongside #seniors in an adult care community and develop #lifelonglearning and #creativeaging programs. I represent #contingent faculty on the #msa board and love to boost content from #adjunct and non-TT scholars.

  36. @publicDH Ich mach mal einen Aufschlag ohne Anspruch auf Vollständigkeit:
    Public Humanities sind:
    - #WissKomm, bei der (geisteswiss.) Forschung und Public (wie man die auch immer definieren mag) im Austausch sind
    - #Forschung verständlich ausgedrückt wird
    - #Wissenschaft aus ihrem "Elfenbeiturm" kommt

    #PublicDH sind:
    - #PublicHumanities, nur dass es sich im Besonderen um #DH handelt
    - ein Schwerpunkt auf Nahebringen digitaler Methoden liegt
    - #DH bekannter und verständlich gemacht werden

  37. Was sind denn für euch #PublicHumanities? Oder auch #PublicDH, also Public Digital Humanities? #DH

  38. Time for an #introduction! I'm a #PhD candidate at the #UniversityofMinnesota, studying #biography and #victorianlit. I'm writing a #dissertation about The Life and Work of Thomas Hardy.

    I also write #bookreviews and #creativenonfiction and have #published in Chicago Review of Books, Split Lip Magazine, Colorado Review, etc. I'm the managing editor at Pleiades.
