I’m finishing up a pretty technical paper that straddles computer science, digital humanities, and archives using a bunch of national library data. I’d love some input from Bluesky about good journals to submit to. I haven’t done this in a while! 📚 #skybrarians #academicsky

So you've enriched collections data by crowdsourcing, machine learning/AI, or both. But does the data end up in a collections management system, or does it sit on a drive somewhere? Share your experiences - our survey should take about 15 mins: forms.gle/JgArpbL6VNM6... And pls boost for reach!

What a dream teaching team!
