Session Description

The Jackman Humanities Institute (JHI) invites researchers in the humanities and social sciences working with collaborators and partners both inside and outside academia to an online workshop designed to help develop strategies to document project goals, procedures and governance structures to ensure project longevity, as well as to look ahead to storing and accessing their project websites, podcasts, papers and data well into the future.
