Thematic Research
Collections:
A New Genre in
Humanities Publishing
Computer
technology offers us the means to build
collaboratively collections of primary
resources and critical secondary
resources documenting themes and subjects
and to make these available anywhere and
anytime. This talk will explore what
these thematic resource collections
represent: nothing less than the
beginning of a revolution in humanities
scholarly communication, and the
emergence of an entirely new publishing
genre.
