Collaboration is important to most digital humanities projects because they tend to call for different skills. Some key things to consider:
- Be clear about credit at the beginning. Collaborators can (justifiably) feel hurt if they are not recognized in the credits of a project or in papers that come out projects. A good way to avoid problems is to develop a protocol early on as to how credit will be allocated in different situations.
- Be as clear as possible about the responsibilities and tasks for collaborators at the beginning. A good way to do this is to develop a charter together.
Readings on Collaboration
- Collaborative Work and the Conditions for American Literary Scholarship in a Digital Age by Kenneth M. Price is a nice overview of the types of collaboration.
- Challenging Gaps: Redesigning Collaboration in the Digital Humanities by Amy E. Earhart is an essay that looks at the challenges to interdisciplinary collaboration.
