Refining and Launching a Digital Commons for the Canadian Humanities and Social Sciences to Facilitate Community-based Open Scholarship
The proposed project focuses on the research, analysis, and engagement of the Canadian Humanities and Social Sciences (HSS) Commons: an open, digital platform for research collaboration and sharing. This collaboration builds on Iter Canada’s investment in related work since 2008, extends previous Mitacs-funded work, and is undertaken by a multi-career level team. When complete, the Canadian HSS Commons will serve communities such as those represented by Iter Canada and groups beyond, as it empowers individual researchers to develop, exchange, and share open access publications, drafts, preprints, datasets, and teaching materials through a national-scale, bilingual (French and English) platform, which combines many features of institutional repositories and social networking sites.
