Kathleen Fitzpatrick<p>It occurs to me that I haven't done a proper <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/introduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>introduction</span></a> on this new instance! My formal job title is Director of Digital Humanities and Professor of English at Michigan State University, but alongside that I also direct <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/MeshResearch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MeshResearch</span></a>, a lab focused on building open-source interoperable tools for new forms of scholarly communication. I'm also director of <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/HumanitiesCommons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HumanitiesCommons</span></a>, a scholarly network serving something like 50,000 users across the humanities and around the world.* And of course I'm one of your friendly neighborhood hcommons.social admins.</p><p>My <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/research" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>research</span></a> interests circulate around the future of <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/scholarlyCommunication" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>scholarlyCommunication</span></a>, as one component of thinking about how <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/universities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>universities</span></a> might become more <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/open" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>open</span></a>, more <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/generous" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>generous</span></a> spaces for cultural and intellectual work. Of late, that interest has led me to thinking a lot about <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/leadership" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>leadership</span></a> and <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/governance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>governance</span></a>, and particularly ways that they can be more <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/collective" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>collective</span></a> and <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/collaborative" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>collaborative</span></a>.</p>
