Caution: This email was sent from someone outside of the University of Lethbridge. Do not click on links or open attachments unless you know they are safe. Suspicious emails should be forwarded to phishing(a)uleth.ca. Hello, I am writing to invite you to participate in a study we are conducting on understanding the use of digital technologies by scholars of medieval studies. Principal Investigator: Krishna Venkatasubramanian, PhD Research purpose: The aim of this study is to understand the use of digital technologies by scholars of medieval studies and to see how well these tools work for them, when they fail, and what can be done to improve them. We also plan to see how disability and chronic conditions affect these trends. Protocol: We will be conducting online interviews via videoconference for this study. This study entails a set of interviews, approximately 45-60 minutes long, with individual staff members. They will be conducted remotely via videoconference, e.g., Zoom. Video recordings will be made during all sessions of the study. The recordings will then be transcribed, and the original recording will be deleted once the transcription is verified to be accurate. Benefits: There are no anticipated benefits to the participants other than the study affording ideas for better designs of digital tools and technologies for scholars of medieval studies. Eligibility: Participants for this study should be adults who are active research scholars in one of the various sub-disciplines of medieval studies. In addition, they must: use digital technologies for their research in medieval studies; be willing to use Zoom to participate in the interview, which will be recorded for transcription purposes; and be currently located in the US or Canada (due to restrictions on compensating participants). Researchers with a chronic health condition and/or disability are particularly welcome. Time commitment: 45-60 minutes Mode of interview: All interviews will be conducted remotely via Zoom or other teleconferencing system conducive to the participants. Compensation: You will be compensated $50 in the form of gift card for your participation. This research has been approved by The University of Rhode Island Institutional Review Board. Please let us know if you are interested in participating. Thanks very much, Krishna Venkatasubramanian, PhD Tina-Marie Ranalli, PhD ASSET Lab University of Rhode Island (US) https://kven.me/asset https://ranalli.weebly.com

RIDE 16 – Reviews of Digital Scholarly Editions and the FAIR Principles
by Tessa Gengnagel 10 Mar '23

Caution: This email was sent from someone outside of the University of Lethbridge. Do not click on links or open attachments unless you know they are safe. Suspicious emails should be forwarded to phishing(a)uleth.ca. [apologies for cross-posting] Dear colleagues, we are very happy to announce the first joint publication of RIDE (Review Journal for Digital Editions) and the NFDI consortium Text+ (https://www.text-plus.org/). The NFDI is the German National Research Data Infrastructure (https://www.nfdi.de/) intiative which was launched in 2020 and is working to shape the future of research data management in Germany across all disciplines through dedicated consortia. Since 2021, the NFDI Text+ consortium is dedicated to the domain of text- and language-based data, particularly collections, lexical resources, and scholarly editions. In volume 16 (https://ride.i-d-e.de/issues/issue-16/) of RIDE, five editions were reviewed with a specific focus on the FAIR Data Principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable). What does FAIRness mean in the context of digital scholarly editions? Can the FAIR principles be applied to digital edition projects at all? How do we measure their FAIRness? This volume aims to foster a conversation about these questions. While the majority of the editions under review may not be editions of medieval materials (although the Königsfelden edition is), we believe that the topic may still be of interest to the editorial community at large. The following contributions are included in volume 16: * Gengnagel, Tessa; Neuber, Frederike; Schulz, Daniela. „EDITORIAL: FAIR Enough? Evaluating Digital Scholarly Editions and the Application of the FAIR Data Principles." RIDE 16 (2023). doi: https://doi.org/10.18716/ride.a.16.0. * Untner, Laura. „Review of ‚Walter Benjamin Digital'." RIDE 16 (2023). doi: https://doi.org/10.18716/ride. a.16.1. * Galka, Selina. „Review of ‚Digitale Edition und Kommentierung der Tagebücher des Fürsten Christian II. von Anhalt-Bernburg (1599-1656)'." RIDE 16 (2023). doi: https://doi.org/10.18716/ride.a.16.2. * Görmar, Maximilian. „Review of ‚Briefportal Leibniz'." RIDE 16 (2023). doi: https://doi.org/10.18716/ride.a.16.3. * Frühwirt, Timo; Meyer, Sandra; Stoxreiter, Daniel. „Review of ‚Theodor Fontane's Notebooks: A 'Digital Genetic-Critical and Commented Edition''." RIDE 16 (2023). doi: https://doi.org/10.18716/ride.a.16.4. * Pollin, Christopher. „A Review of the Königsfelden Online Edition." RIDE 16 (2023). doi: https://doi.org/10.18716/ride.a.16.5. A second joint volume, again with a focus on the FAIR principles, is already under way and can be expected to be published later this spring in a "rolling release". Suggestions for reviews or interest in becoming a reviewer can still be expressed to the editors via ride-textplus[at]i-d-e.de (see also the Call for Reviews: https://ride.i-d-e.de/reviewers/call-for-reviews/ride-textplus-en/). Enjoy the (FAIR) RIDE!
