The continued growth of digital scholarship in librarianship, as evidenced in new positions, new centers, new institutes, new reports/publications, and responding to the ethical turn that our field has undergone in response to current political culture. Following the ARL Digital Scholarship Institute, we agreed that it would be useful to have a document to point to that reflects and illuminates the impetus behind these impulses. Not finding such a document, we decided to produce this as a catalyst to begin that conversation.
