I would like to introduce Digital Humanities Now, a weekly publication that distributes news and work of interest to digital humanities folks in research, education, libraries and archives, and cultural heritage organizations. We rely on volunteers to review the posts that we aggregate from nearly 700 RSS feeds, as well as look through their own networks, to nominate pieces for broader distribution. I can share a bit about how we work and how we are helping other communities create their own curated publications.

I’d like to offer a session on “Workflow for Digital Humanities Publishing,” based on my experience working on the German Historical Institute’s Immigrant Entrepreneurship project, an online collection of biographical articles on German-American entrepreneurs (www.immigrantentrepreneurship.org). We rely on a combination of in-house staff and external authors and editors. It would be great to discuss some of the issues we’ve encountered with people who are working on, designing, or have completed similar projects, whether on a larger scale or a much smaller scale.
