From the chat running next to the live presentation, Rachel Wittmann says: “Here is the link to the Kennecott Miner Records collection in the University of Utah digital library - Kennecott Miner Records | University of Utah Marriott Library | J. Willard Marriott Digital Library”

Thanks to all panelists on this important public humanities conversation - would be great to continue that with you and if I might share link to our Publishing and the Publicly Engaged Humanities group co-convened with NHA - which to the point made by @kv2h - the challenges we identify need LOTS of people to make the change Discussion – Publishing and the Publicly Engaged Humanities – Humanities Commons

I know I am really excited to use Constellate for my own research. I am going to using it to perform textual analysis of library technology articles to determine if there is a discipline of library technology that women’s voice appear to be absent.

amy.kirchhoff · February 22, 2021, 5:58pm

Great! Let us know how it goes. There are plenty of library and information science journals in both JSTOR and Portico that are available for analysis.

aneatrour · February 22, 2021, 6:30pm

Thanks for the link - I haven’t been engaged with the Humanities Commons before but I will check it out

Not sure if my comment was registered during the session, but I think Constellate will give a lot of the CAQDAS (qualitative data analysis) tools a run for their money and I look forward to testing it out in my owne research.
