Dear colleagues,
I am writing to you on behalf of the editors of a special collection for the Journal of Open Humanities Data (JOHD), because I believe your work would be a good fit for our "Amplifying GLAM Collections: Scalable and Inclusive Data Practices." The Call for Papers and further details are available here.
JOHD fosters a thriving community of scholars sharing humanities data. The journal features peer reviewed publications describing humanities research objects or techniques with high potential for reuse. Humanities subjects of interest to JOHD include, but are not limited to Art History, Classics, History, History of Science, Library and Information Science, Linguistics, Literature, Media Studies, Modern Languages, Music and musicology, Philosophy, Religious Studies, etc. Submissions that cross one or more of these traditional disciplines are particularly encouraged.
For this special issue we invite cultural heritage practitioners such as librarians, archivists, curators, and data stewards as well as researchers, scholars, and practitioners collaborating with them, to contribute papers focused on GLAM collections. We encourage both full research papers (3000 to 5000 words) and data paper (1000 words) submissions about data derived from cultural heritage collections with potential reuse value for other cultural heritage organisations or researchers.
Abstract submission: August 1, 2024
Paper submission: November 4, 2024.
