Descripción

In May of 2022, Britt asked Twitter for help finding sources to make the argument that sharing code via repositories like GitHub could be considered a form of Scholarly Communications. (This was when Twitter was Twitter.) Her tweet generated a lot of discussion and several responses included tips, resources, things to be aware of, and projects to follow. Thinking that access to the crowd-sourced resources could be useful to others, she  opened a Google Doc, copied all of the tweets, organized them roughly, and then shared that document with the academic Twitter community. The document lived on her Google drive for 3 years. In 2025, she decided to archive the document and moved it to the HSS Commons.
