Knowledge Abundance
"In an era of knowledge abundance, scholars have the capacity to distribute and share ideas and artifacts via digital networks, yet networked scholarship often remains unrecognized within institutional spheres of influence." - Bonnie Stewart (2015)
The digitization of data has accelerated research in every field. Historians have vast libraries at their fingertips while sociologists and geographers can plot any number of behavioral datasets onto their maps. Code is increasingly shared in platforms like GitHub and BitBucket and can be forked to fit even the most esoteric use cases. However, with the proliferation of data---journals, books, websites, datasets, code, etc.---the challenge becomes discoverability. How will you help people find your brilliant work?
