Clifford Tatum Michelle LaFrance Christine Borgman 2011 2011 Harvard Digital Scholarship Summit: Keynote – Christine Borgman (UCLA) Several decades ago, access to scholarly information was the exclusive domain of libraries and publishers. Now research is disseminated by many formal and informal means, not only by libraries and publishers but also by preprint repositories and tweets. Access may be faster – if one can separate signal from noise amidst the plethora of communication channels. Changes in access are a result of the transition from a closed scholarly world to the open Web, the shift in content and context of networked information, information services for readers and for authors, and differences between publications and data. If future scholars are to use the scholarly content of yesterday, today, and tomorrow, the scholarly community must reclaim information retrieval, rethink partnerships throughout the information life cycle, share responsibility for the information infrastructure, and address policy and incentive issues. http://youtu.be/XzwIeak7e4w Jonathan Zittrain 2008 Jonathan Zittrain previews his book, The Future of the Internet - 2008, Yale University Press Yale University Press http://youtu.be/o7UlYTFKFqY Christine Hine 2008 Systematics as cyberscience : computers, change, and continuity in science MIT Press 9780262083713 Systematics as cyberscience Christine Hine New Infrastructures for Knowledge Production IGI Global 9781591407171 http://www.igi-global.com/bookstore/titledetails.aspx?titleid=800&detailstype=description 2011-08-24 12:06:44 Christine Borgman 2007 Scholarship in the digital age : information, infrastructure, and the internet MIT Press 9780262026192 Scholarship in the digital age Michael Nentwich 2003 Cyberscience: research in the age of the internet Austrian Academy of Sciences Press 604 9783700131885 Cyberscience Gary Olson 2008 Scientific collaboration on the Internet MIT Press 9780262151207 Wesley Shrum 2007 Structures of scientific collaboration MIT Press 9780262195591 http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/Organization SURFfoundation http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/Organization e-Humanities Group http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/Organization Virtual Knowledge Studio KA Foot 2001 Cultural-historical activity theory as practice theory: Illuminating the development of a conflict-monitoring network As the number and intensity of conflicts increased around the world during the latter part of the 20th century scholars, policymakers, and practitioners of nonviolent conflict management strategies created conflict-monitoring networks to track the escalation of tensions in conflict-prone regions. This essay demonstrates how cultural-historical activity theory (CHAT) was employed in the service of a conflict-monitoring network in the former Soviet Union. Based upon historical and participant observation research on the development of the Network for Ethnological Monitoring and Early Warning during 1990-1999, a CHAT-based analysis of the Network's systemic contradictions illuminates its development through one expansive cycle and into a second. Summaries of findings consider relations within the Network, the evolution of the Network's complex object, and the Network's development of tools for monitoring ethnic relations and building an epistemic community. The essay concludes with an analysis of the correspondence between the CHAT framework and the 5 features of practical theory laid out by Cronen (1995).

Bialek E. Efimova R. Schwartlander G. Pless P. Neuhaus 2005 "Blogs" and "wikis" are valuable software tools for communication within research groups Appropriate software tools may improve communication and ease access to knowledge for research groups. A weblog is a website which contains periodic, chronologically ordered posts on a common webpage, whereas a wiki is hypertext-based collaborative software that enables documents to be authored collectively using a web browser. Although not primarily intended for use as an intranet-based collaborative knowledge warehouse, both blogs and wikis have the potential to offer all the features of complex and expensive IT solutions. These tools enable the team members to share knowledge simply and quickly-the collective knowledge base of the group can be efficiently managed and navigated.

These interventions are justified by the hope that e-science infrastructures and tools will foster new venues for researchers and scholars. This triggers a complex interaction between hope, hype, and accountability. In this article, we discuss a new initiative at the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW) - the Virtual Knowledge Studio for the Humanities and Social Sciences (VKS) - in which we are directly involved. The VKS combines the goals of reflexive analysis with design of scholarly practices in a variety of fields. The article discusses this nexus and the tensions involved, as exemplary of the types of challenges that researchers will experience in e-social science as it develops.
