Minnesota Pr., CUNY Grad Center's Hybrid Platform

摘要

The University of Minnesota Press (UMP) and the GC Digital Scholarship Lab at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York (CUNY) in April were awarded a $732,000 grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to launch Manifold Scholarship, a new platform that will enable the publication of iterative, networked, elec-tronic versions of scholarly monographs alongside the print edition of the book. These ebook editions will allow authors to link to or incorporate content such as audio, video, and interactive files, as well as primary re-search documents and data sets. Reader feedback-sep-arate from peer review-will be added via social media channels, and university presses will be able to re-lease updated versions of the ebook titles while still offering access to the original text.
