- 17. Lessons • Scholars usually don’t have a specific methodology in mind we don’t have requirements to work from • Technologists are more comfortable with messy content.
- 18. Lessons • Changing social behavior is much more difficult than the technology! • Scholars and technologists have different mental frameworks for work.
- 19. Collaboration Insights • Technologists need to be part of the research team. • Make no assumptions! • Role of collaboration in our worlds is different.
- 21. New methodologies = new tools
- 22. New methodologies = new tools
- 23. "The design of digital tools for scholarship is an intellectual responsibility, not a technical task.” - Johanna Drucker, Professor of Information Studies, UCLA Johanna Drucker, “Blind Spots: Humanists Must Plan Their Digital Future,” The Chronicle of Higher Education, volume 55, issue 30, page B6 (April 3, 2009).
- 24. Scholars’ Workspace • Scholarly process—methodologies emerge in process of exploring the material • Different projects will have different needs • Are there some common methodologies art historians need? Can we build a suite of tools to accommodate those needs?
- 26. Scholars’ Workspace – text annotation
- 27. Scholars’ Workspace – image annotation

Notas del editor
- Experiment – can we build it?
- Collaboration is an ideal – but in reality…Challenge of developing specifications – editing annotations.
- Drupal – gave us flexibility to prototype quickly with the dataClose collaboration - understand research needs; scholars understand technology process
- Goal was to build tools so they could do as much of the content input and manipulation as possible.
- Social rules of engagement
- e-mail 2. long convos in textThreaded commentsImage displayIs “X” easy to build? (roll over an author’s name, see details)
- Studying images…annotation tool – different type of annotation.
- - Where does scholarship stop, and publication begin- We didn’t realize early on what it would mean to become a digital publication. I thought “we’ll just freeze it!”
- Wireframes….comps….more wireframes…user testing. Lots of questions raised.
- Will - We’ve decided = a website.What device is it on? HTML still works!Susan - But confusion abounds – scholars don’t understand why we brought in the full text of journal articles from the outside – but they are the essays of this publication!We’re going to have to lean a bit more towards the book model.
- Will – Highly designed? Keep it simple/standard. What does it feel like? How do we create a theme that is re-usable and adaptable for future pubs? - Child themesHow do we get out of the one-off Boutique approach to these?\- Susan – How much of experience of original manuscript do we bring in? How much of the research messiness do we keep and publish? What is the value to scholars of the raw work, vs. the polished, cleaned-up version?? Will – comapre to GitHub project example – importance of seeing how s.o. else got to a solution.
- - Susan - Essays as research vs. Revealing the process of the research is a goal. They have a mental model of a book – beginning, end, essays, bib, and cover. We have a model of a website – click anywhere, go anywhere. Murtha – “It’s everywhere!”- How do we incorporate expected scholarly apparatus from print models? Authorship/attributionCitationsReferencesFootnotes
- Susan - Goal is to reach a wider audience – students. Two very different audiences. Is difficult to make it clear to these different users that there are things there for them?- User testing - Concordance example ….
- Susan - Digitally-native content – print publisher. Extract info, edit in Word (or, worse, on paper), and re-load. Manual process.Is there a digital solution for the editorial process?
- Will - 2. Will we update? No. Locked down. Labor + citations/versioning (Susan jumps in)1.There is none. NO SEO….3. Preservation? ! Archive.org/web?!
- Susan – not there – metadata schemas (TEI, LIDO etc…), Hard to choose standards when the methodology is undeterminedTEI – it got edited!We are working somewhere in between archival and publishing modes (J. Drucker).
- Will - In addition to web team, scholars.Add print editor, print designers?
