New perspectives on digital scholarship that speak to today's
computational realities Scholars across the humanities, social
sciences, and information sciences are grappling with how best to
study virtual environments, use computational tools in their
research, and engage audiences with their results. Classic work in
science and technology studies (STS) has played a central role in
how these fields analyze digital technologies, but many of its key
examples do not speak to today’s computational realities. This
groundbreaking collection brings together a world-class group of
contributors to refresh the canon for contemporary digital
scholarship. In twenty-five pioneering and incisive essays, this
unique digital field guide offers innovative new approaches to
digital scholarship, the design of digital tools and objects, and
the deployment of critically grounded technologies for analysis and
discovery. Contributors cover a broad range of topics, including
software development, hackathons, digitized objects, diversity in
the tech sector, and distributed scientific collaborations. They
discuss methodological considerations of social networks and data
analysis, design projects that can translate STS concepts into
durable scientific work, and much more. Featuring a concise
introduction by Janet Vertesi and David Ribes and accompanied by an
interactive microsite, this book provides new perspectives on
digital scholarship that will shape the agenda for tomorrow’s
generation of STS researchers and practitioners.
