Reimagining the Monograph - AAUP 2017 Annual Meeting

Monographs are increasingly making the print-to-digital shift that journals started twenty years ago, opening up new possibilities for the ways that a long-form argument can be presented and communicated. Yet a richer online environment for scholarly monographs has not come to pass, or at least not at scale. In October 2016, JSTOR Labs, an experimental platform development group at JSTOR, convened a group of scholars, librarians, and publishers to unpack the design issues around the presentation of digital monographs. The group proposed a set of principles for reimagining the presentation of monographs in order to improve the user experience and increase the value of ebooks to scholars. In this presentation, we will introduce these principles, which are outlined in a new white paper available at http://labs.jstor.org/monograph and demonstrate a prototype that the JSTOR Labs group built based on the working group’s feedback: a topic-based navigational aid for monographs called Topicgraph. We will reflect on the implications of these principles for authors, researchers, libraries and publishers. Last, we will contemplate next steps for this work and explore and seek audience input on potential future prototypes and directions. This slide deck includes the results from an activity with the audience, which they voted on potential future prototypes.

Reimagining the Monograph - AAUP 2017 Annual Meeting

  1. 1. REIMAGINING THE MONOGRAPH AAUP Annual Conference 2017 June 12, 2017 Alex Humphreys, JSTOR Labs @abhumphreys Laura Mandell, Texas A&M @mandellc Charles Watkinson, U Michigan Publishing @charleswatkinso
  2. 2. ITHAKA is a not-for-profit organization that helps the academic community use digital technologies to preserve the scholarly record and to advance research and teaching in sustainable ways. JSTOR is a not-for-profit digital library of academic journals, books, and primary sources. Ithaka S+R is a not-for-profit research and consulting service that helps academic, cultural, and publishing communities thrive in the digital environment.

Artstor provides 2+ million high-quality images and digital asset management software to enhance scholarship and teaching.
  3. 3. JSTOR Labs works with partner publishers, libraries and labs to create tools for researchers, teachers and students that are immediately useful – and a little bit magical.
  4. 4. labs.jstor.org/monograph REIMAGINING THE MONOGRAPH
  5. 5. HOW WE DID IT
  6. 6. WORKING RAPIDLY Can we improve the experience and value of long-form scholarship? Aug-Sep: User Research Oct: Workshop Nov: Build Prototype Dec: Release Paper/Prototype
  7. 7. TALKING TO USERS
  8. 8. WHAT WE LEARNED: DIVERSITY & ROUTINE They employed a wide diversity of activities and approaches, each honed and “owned” by the participant. They had strong preferences for print or digital depending on use case, but obstructions often forced them outside of their preferred modes. They used a great variety of devices, programs, apps & analog tools that accompanied work with the monograph.

  17. 17. 1. The importance of great writing is a given.
  18. 18. 2. The ideal digital monograph should allow different kinds of readers to navigate it in different ways.
