@NPayneEditor @jredec @HeritageSK So many options. What about organizing a trip around a theme: forts, ghost towns, art communities, a notable person/people, archeological sites, something architectural, that sort of thing?

Frank Klaassen's card game Virtus: the Game of Medieval Masculinity is up on HistoryGames https://t.co/OjXdYM6zqa We haven't had time to pretty up the site yet, but it's sure cool to have the content available for everyone. Go get Medieval this weekend! #cardgames #medieval

@danielleganza I think it's true of the non-digital work as well. I also wonder, given we need to sleep and stuff, how much responsibility we have and how much the general public has.

I wonder what the percentages are in Canada https://t.co/RHjdZwaHtq #museums

Probably late on the scene tweeting this out, but this traditional lands interactive map is worth mentioning: https://t.co/MiSedGHnIw Great work

I'm actually not sure how the margins could be bigger in any conceivable business model. @arbuckle_alyssa discuses the scholarly publishing problem: https://t.co/PG1emmLRbK #openaccess

@ccgray662 Hmm, not sure. I'll poke around and let you know.

... and happy to announce @SSHRC_CRSH funding for the next phase of our research on early modern cabinets of curiosities, with @historybeagle, Jon Bath, and Craig Harkema https://t.co/pkxIwhezsb

Man, we build some wonderfully complex systems with some deep and often absurd metadata. It sure would be nice to spend some time figuring out the interface though.

Stumbled upon yet another Australian doing amazing work with digital cultural heritage. Her thesis may be of interest to the public/community history peeps out there: https://t.co/ZMaGalDwN3

@sluckylib Now you're just sucking up and trying to get the hashtag established. #disymposium18 does sound a bit like a deadly virus.

[Sask History Online @saskhistory]

Why isn't @sluckylib tweeting every detail of her experience at #disymposium2018 in sunny San Diego? I heard there was wine.

I look forward to following more of @StephenSurlin work https://t.co/3dJSzzcBQ2 and great to see library led digital scholarship centres like @macscds support it.

[Sask History Online @saskhistory]
