Librarians and Other Academics • Survey conducted to study collaborations between archivists/librarians and other DH scholars (subject faculty, graduate students, alt-academics) on DH projects • Main themes: • Which party initiates collaborations and why? • How do archivists/librarians adjust workflows for DH projects? • How does each party view the success of the collaboration? • What did each party learn about working with their counterpart? • What administrative hurdles exist in these collaborations? Jessica Wagner Webster Jessica.wagnerwebster@baruch.cuny.edu @jwagnerarch
• Tasks may not break down according to traditional roles of each partner • Information professionals reported more difficulty in collaborative roles with DH scholars than scholars reported with information professionals • Administrative and budgetary support is a massive constraint on the success of these projects, especially for information professionals Jessica Wagner Webster Jessica.wagnerwebster@baruch.cuny.edu @jwagnerarch

and Anti-feminist online communities are in closer conversation with each other • There may be a definition that is agreed upon at any given time, though definition drifts as conversation evolve over time What sociological forces might be driving this dynamism in the discourse surrounding intersectionality? • Inherent flexibility of intersectionality makes possible misunderstanding • In an atomized political context, intersectionality is no longer dominantly used as a political tool for building solidarity across identity groups • Existing individual Reddit users, sympathetic to an antifeminist perspective, seize on cultural articulations of gender and identity to build straw(wo)men
rhetorical situation. It’s a potential site for critical, real-world engagement across the curriculum. When student make complex multimodal texts they’ve read or written accessible to screenreaders, that composing task can deepen their engagement and expand their sense of audience. In the next three minutes, I’ll explain: 1) how to mechanically insert Alt-Text into Google Docs and Google Slides, and... 2) why accessible design can measure student engagement, potentially aiding in the transfer of literacy, communication, and ethical skills.

to experience the richness of New York City’s arts and cultural institutions. The University recognizes that exposure to the arts improves students’ critical thinking skills, and broadening their ability to think strategically. For many students, the challenges and wonders of the arts are elusive, expensive, perceived to be unwelcoming, or unknown. Students tend to encounter the arts through required art appreciation or survey art history courses. The CUNY Arts Project aims to integrate the arts into all aspects of university curriculum underscoring the diverse ways in which the arts intersects with academic disciplines across CUNY.
their work with CUNY colleagues, exchanged ideas and approaches, giving and receiving feedback through a designated CUNY Arts OER website housed on Academic Works and accessed through OpenEd@CUNY. With CUNY funding CUNY Arts augmented the Program by creating an OER (Open Educational Resource) component. The OER element oomplements CUNY Arts as it currently exists by adding pedagogical resources that enhance both faculty and students engagement with the CUNY Arts program. CUNY Arts considers New York City cultural institutions as OERs as an opportunity to expand pedagogical choices, develop student information literacy, introduce a wider variety of course materials, and underscore interdisciplinarity, a strength of the CUNY system.
