Resources for Digital Dissertations

Posted by A.L. McMichael on September 30, 2014 at 12:58 pm

Hi, all.
The Digital Fellows have added new Digital Dissertations content to the Resources sections of our website. Please check it out at http://digitalfellows.commons.gc.cuny.edu/digital-dissertations/.
We will be adding features and content throughout the year. If there’s anything you’d like to see us add, or a particular kind of information that would be useful, feel free to comment here or email us at [email protected]

Thanks,
Alice Lynn

  The GC library is about to announce the rollout of our archive-it service whichhas the ability to capture and preserve born-digital components of a dissertation at the moment deposit. Stay tuned.

  Alice Lynn and the Digital Fellows,
  I assume you are all aware (and attending!) the “What Is a Dissertation? New Models, Methods, Media” event on Oct. 10th: http://www.hastac.org/blogs/cathy-davidson/2014/08/28/what-dissertation-new-models-methods-media
  We have a crowdsourced Google Doc on this topic already, and would really appreciate if you could contribute to it by adding these great resources: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1hLdruyTB-r7cEnljv2m1U7mzqrQyyeAiazbSO3ELZaw/edit?usp=sharing
  Let’s work together!

  Thanks, Amanda. I’ve added your link to our events listing on the site (and the site’s link to your Google doc as well). We’re compiling an “examples” section where I can mention the “honor roll” aspects of the Google doc as well.
  
  Stephen, that’s great news. Please keep us posted on the progress of the archive-it service so I can add it to the site.
