]]> Comment on Imagining new tools for humanities scholars by Elizabeth http://digitalscholarship.wordpress.com/2007/12/03/imagining-new-tools-for-humanities-scholars/#comment-810 Elizabeth Mon, 03 Aug 2009 13:53:23 +0000 http://digitalscholarship.wordpress.com/2007/12/03/imagining-new-tools-for-humanities-scholars/#comment-810 You might take a look at a program called Storyspace at http://www.eastgate.com/storyspace/index.html. The software is commercial and expensive (at $295), but the product is in web-ready hypertext with no proprietary restrictions on its use (and no special reader required). I believe they have a trial version. I tried it a few years ago and was very impressed with it, but couldn't afford it. I believe you could also accomplish your vision using Adobe Acrobat and pdf files. There are several programs that will produce pdf files from your word processing files, but with Adobe's own (expensive) software you can edit them, create bookmarks, links, etc. I once turned a large (400-page) report into a set of smaller linked files using Adobe Acrobat, but it wasn't easy or intuitive.

I hope it's useful. I've been compiling a big (and overwhelming) bibliography of, um, stuff about collaboration, including sociological studies of collaborative work in science, examples of collaborative digital humanities projects, books and articles about peer-to-peer collaboration, and whatever else strikes me as interesting. It's at http://www.zotero.org/lisaspiro/items/collection/143164 If you don't feel like wading through 600+ bibliography entries (I'm such an information packrat), I'd be happy to suggest particular readings that might be relevant to your class... Best of luck with the course--it sounds fabulous. Thanks, Amanda! I hope it’s useful.
