Collaborative Research in the Digital Humanities by Marilyn Deegan and Willard McCarty

A new digital humanities collection focusing on collaboration, Collaborative Research in the Digital Humanities, has been published by Ashgate. The collection is edited by Marilyn Deegan and Willard McCarty and was developed in honour of Harold Short who retired a few years ago from King’s College London where he set up the Humanities Computing Centre (now called the Department of Digital Humanities).

I contributed a chapter on crowdsourcing entitled, “Crowdsourcing the humanities: social research and collaboration”.
