Uncovering the UK’s hidden arts and humanities research infrastructure
In this new article for Wonkhe, The School of Advanced Study, University of London's Professor Jo Fox talks through mapping our little-discussed national arts and humanities research infrastructure:
"Mapping the Arts and Humanities is an interactive map of arts and humanities institutes, centres, networks and facilities, launched last month. Featuring over 3,000 pieces of infrastructure that support arts and humanities research, the map makes it easier for users to discover and connect with research activity across the UK and know what is happening in their region and fields.
The map has started with the hidden infrastructures of collaboration: but will move on in its next phase to map libraries, archives, museums and virtual resources.
The project has become so much more than the map itself.
It has become a portal through which we can evaluate the health of the arts and humanities research landscape, and it has raised wider questions about how we optimise support for research across the UK."
