Emory University’s Center for Digital Scholarship (ECDS) is hosting a new website to bring together research projects, resources, and information about the Atlanta metro region and inspire new scholarship. You can learn more about the Atlanta Studies website (atlantastudies.org), launched in February of 2015, in this Southern Spaces journal article: “Collaborative Atlanta Studies Website Gathers Original Scholarship, Research, and Projects on Atlanta.”
The website is an open-access online publication that features original writings and projects about the Atlanta region, resources for the region, and events such as quarterly meetups and an annual Atlanta Studies Symposium. Atlanta Studies is a collaborative effort, with editorial and advisory board members from organizations and institutions across the region and the country, and aims to engage audiences both inside and outside the academic world.
