dLIST is a cross-institutional, subject-based, open access
digital archive for the Information Sciences, including Archives
and Records Management, Library and Information Science,
Information Systems, Museum Informatics, and other critical
information infrastructures. The dLIST vision is to serve as a
trusted archive and source for scholarly communication in the
Information Sciences, broadly understood. dLIST seeks to
positively impact and shape scholarly communication in our
closely related fields. Editors represent diverse
sub-disciplinary communities and work closely with scholars in
different fields such as Digital Humanities and Digital Libraries
(Marija Dalbello), Government Information and Social Informatics
(Kristin Eschenfelder), Information Behaviors (Soo Young Rieh),
Museum Informatics (Paul Marty), Scholarly Communication (Charles
Bailey), Science Technology Studies (Fernando Elichirigoity), and
Classics (Michael May). More information about each of the dLIST
editors is available at
