- 10. ➋ DOCUMENTATION Commodities Mentioned: ✪ This includes any commodities mentioned in the text, but only those exhibiting exchange value, which includes cultural or symbolic capital in addition to monetary value. It does not, however, include use value. This section uses the language of the text. ✪ The distinction between use value and exchange value: ✸ “the pretty coat at the ball” has exchange value because it is there representing a cultural sign of wealth or beauty. ✸ “the coat” that is mentioned as being worn in the winter because it is cold has use value. It keeps the wearer warm but does not represent a cultural or exchange value. @DH_Collective QuasiCon 2014

- 25. Library publishing and digital humanities movements = similar origins @DH_Collective QuasiCon 2014
- 26. “This [focus of anxiety] is manifested in the intensity of debates around open-access publishing, where faculty members increasingly demand the right to retain ownership of their own scholarship—meaning their own labor—and disseminate it freely to an audience apart from or parallel with more traditional structures of academic publishing.” Matthew Kirschenbaum, “What Is Digital Humanities and What’s It Doing in English Departments?” @DH_Collective QuasiCon 2014

- 35. “I cannot think of a successful digital humanities center — anywhere in the world — that did not begin with a bunch of people who had found each other through various means and who were committed to the bold and revolutionary project of talking to one another about their common interests. Over time, that had morphed into an even bolder and more revolutionary idea: the idea that perhaps they could work on something together.” Stephen Ramsay, “Centers Are People” @DH_Collective QuasiCon 2014
