Message-ID: SIG AH and SIG VIS Panel (Monday Nov. 9, 8:00am) This panel brings together student, faculty, and professional speakers to examine key topics related to the role of information and technology in the development of research practices for, and about, the arts and humanities. Two core themes will be examined: 1) the importance of collaborative, cross-disciplinary programs, and, 2) the visibility afforded by technology and technology-based engagement allowing greater ?impact? in arts and humanities disciplines. Within this context, panelists will discuss a collaborative interactive exhibit of library data, image classification of library collections using Flickr, engagement with digital methods, and an examination of altmetrics and current trends in research assessment. https://www.asist.org/events/annual-meeting/annual-meeting-2015/breaking-traditional-barriers-collaboration-impact-and-information-technology-in-the-humanities/ SIG AH Business Meeting (Monday Nov. 9, 2:45pm ?

Have you ever wondered how you might use your own particular skills and subject expertise to help build the world's most popular online research tool? We are the lead co-organizers of Art+Feminism, a campaign to improve coverage of women and the arts on Wikipedia and to encourage female editorship. We invite you to join us for the 3rd international Art+Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-thon, on the weekend of March 4-6, 2016. Last year, over 1500 participants at the Museum of Modern Art in New York and more than 75 node events around the world participated in the second annual Wikipedia Edit-a-thon, resulting in the creation of nearly 400 new pages and significant improvements to 500 articles on Wikipedia. We are hoping to double these results in 2016, and this is where we need you! Email us at info at art.plusfeminism.org to organize a satellite event at your institution. We will help walk you through the logistics of setting up and connect you with a Wikipedian who can help facilitate training. It's a great way to do your part to close the gender gap AND establish a Wikipedia practice on your campus! Funds are available for satellite events. Get in touch to learn more. We look forward to hearing from you! The Art+Feminism team (Si?n Evans + Jackie Mabey + Michael Mandiberg) PS Can't organize your own event but still want to be involved?
