Scholar Index: a Citation Index for the Arts and Humanities

The Scholar Index: Towards a collaborative citation index for the Arts and Humanities

ABSTRACT

«We present Linked Books: a platform to index the literature and primary sources of the arts and humanities through citations. These resources are becoming increasingly digital, thanks in part to digitization campaigns and a shift towards digital publishing.

Nevertheless, the coverage of commercial citation indexes is still poor and mostly limited to publications in English. This results in an untapped opportunity, as the literature refers to a wealth of primary sources from institutions such as libraries, archives and museums.

As a consequence, a comprehensive indexing of its citations would constitute a unique opportunity to greatly enhance the search capacities of scholars and interconnect collections currently set apart.»
