State of the art report on digital research practices, tools and scholarly content use : Deliverable D1.2

• This document constitutes desk research to analyse the current situation related to digital research practices, tools and content for the humanities and social sciences research communities and it comprises of three Milestones submitted separately in the course of the first nine months of the Project, each corresponding to digital research practices, tools and content respectively. Moreover, this report will serve as an exploratory stage which will provide the basis for the confirmation stage, that is the web survey undertaken within Task 1.3, relying heavily on work previously presented in Deliverable 1.1 (Research Communities Identification and Definition Report), in which the humanities and social sciences research communities were largely identified. The Research Communities Web Survey (T.1.3.4), which has been completed and is currently being processed, encompasses - amongst others -questions pertaining to the activities undertaken by Humanities and Social Sciences researchers, as well as questions regarding the use of content and metadata. This current document provides the background work which guided the design of the Web Survey and is meant to complement the related Web Survey findings which will comprise the User Requirements and Case Studies Analysis report, D1.3. Moreover, this work draws from and complements Deliverable 1.5 (Case Studies Expert Forum Report. The present desk research seeks to analyse the current situation related to digital research practices, tools and content for the humanities and social sciences research community, and will serve as an exploratory stage which will provide the basis for the confirmatory stage, that is the Content Strategy and User Requirements reports, due later on in the Project.
