        Subject: Publication of Linked Data for Digital Humanities

Dear Willard

We are very pleased to announce the publication of Linked Data for Digital
Humanities by Terhi Nurmikko-Fuller : https://www.routledge.com/Linked-Data-for-
Digital-Humanities/Nurmikko-Fuller/p/book/9781032055183.
It is available in Paperback, Hardback and eBook formats. (You may want to take
advantage of 20% discount in the Routledge January sale.)

The volume provides insights into how digital technologies can enrich and
diversify humanities scholarship and make it pioneering in the digital age.
Written in non-specialist language, the book illustrates how information is
captured, published, represented, accessed, and interpreted using computational
systems and, in doing so, shows how technologies actively shape the way we
understand what we encounter. It includes analyses of a number of widely
different case studies that share a common thread in the use of the Linked Data
information publication paradigm. The book also includes reflections on
practical considerations and offers advice about how to take institutional
policies, socio-cultural sensitivities, and economic models into consideration
when implementing Linked Data projects.

The book discusses technological issues in the context of Humanities
scholarship, bridging disciplines and enabling informed conversations across
disciplinary boundaries. It will be of interest to humanities scholars, computer
and data scientists, and library, information and digital humanities
professionals.

Linked Data for Digital Humanities is the 47th volume in the series Digital
Research in the Arts and Humanities :
www.routledge.com/Digital-Research-in-the-Arts-and-Humanities/book-series/DRAH
The 48th volume will be published in March: Digital Humanities in Medieval and
Early Modern Spanish Texts: Current Perspectives and Approaches, edited By
Roberto J. González Zalacain & Gael Vaamonde
