This step-by-step guide was created as part of the Building Digital Communities in the Humanities and Social Sciences event (https://inke.ca/building2/) that took place at the Congress of the Humanities and Social Sciences from May 27-28, 2023. The guides shared at this event aim to help new and existing users of the Canadian HSS Commons use the site to publish and share their work, host society events, migrate and share existing research materials, support the work of society journals, create collaborative groups and projects, and more.

The Canadian HSS Commons team is also very grateful to the scholarly societies that supported and participated in the Building Digital Communities event at the 2023 Congress of the Humanities and Social Sciences.
