A post at AHA Today announces the release of the latest issue of Perspectives, which takes on the topic “Doing History in the Digital Age.”
…we’ve assembled a group of articles that do not issue the “go digital or else” imperatives that rightly ruffle many in our community—they explore possibilities and complications of the digital age.
Features include several topics of great interest to librarians, archivists, and other information professionals engaged in digital humanities work, including scholarly communication, digital preservation, and undergraduate instruction in digital scholarship.
- “Does It Count?” Scholarly Communication and African American Digital History, by Matthew Delmont
