DOING HISTORY
The “Doing History” podcast series are about early American history and how historians work. Each series utilizes the OI’s community of early Americanist scholars to discuss issues surrounding the production of scholarship.
OPEN ACCESS
It is important for humanities scholars, readers, publishers, and librarians to understand the potential opportunities and challenges of Open Access. Open Access is a term that loosely encompasses a set of ideas and ambitions about scholarly communication. In its simplest form, it means immediate online publication of all scholarly publications.
THIS CAMP
Now offered at every annual OI conference, each THis Camp teaches software of special use for historians. Participants in THis Camp workshops do not need to have any advanced or specialized technical knowledge, but can learn enough to begin using the resource immediately.
OI READER
The OI Reader gives a platform for publishing not only a digital edition of the William and Mary Quarterly but also additional digital projects that expand our understanding of early American history intellectually, conceptually and rhetorically. We are excited to share this innovative content with you.
