About this event

What counts as data in the Humanities? What are the advantages of data
sharing? How can the creators of data receive credit through academic
publications? This Open Humanities Data Forum explores the broader view of
data sharing and publishing in Humanities research. It is an opportunity to
learn about open data and encourage its adoption. If you have created a
resource, a dataset, a corpus and you want to get academic credit for it, or
you simply want to see what is happening in this space, come and participate! 

The Journal of Open Humanities Data is publishing a special collection of
data-focused papers exploring the widespread effects of COVID-19 through the
lens of the Humanities. The collection is entitled “Humanities Data in the
time of COVID-19” and is led by guest editors Sahba Besharati and Mandy
Wigdorowitz. The event will offer an opportunity to hear more about this
special collection and ask any questions you may have.
