Hi DH friends, join us on Nov 10, 10-11 am CT, for “New Book History Research with Internet Data”, a hybrid panel sponsored by SHAR, to explore challenges and opportunities of using Internet data and digital methods for book history research. More info in the poster attached and comments :)
This is a panel on “Book History with Internet Data”, with 8 panelists from different IMLS/iSchools, funded by SHARP. Over the past two decades, a variety of internet-based datasets have emerged related to books, reading habits, and reader communities—ranging from crowd-sourced genre tags and online reviews to platforms like BookTok. These datasets are increasingly valuable for research in reading and readership, often complementing traditional book history approaches. However, they also raise new questions and challenges. To explore these opportunities and foster interdisciplinary collaboration, this panel will bring together eight panelists from diverse fields to discuss questions, such as: How can we critically understand the relationship between Internet-based “book” data and traditional research materials? What are the methodological challenges and potential pitfalls of using digital data in book history research? How can interdisciplinary approaches enrich the analysis of Internet book and reader datasets? Here are our amazing panelists: - Micah Bateman, Assistant Professor, School of Library and Information Science, The University of Iowa - Melanie Walsh, Assistant Professor, an Assistant Professor in the Information School and an Adjunct Assistant Professor in the English Department, University of Washington - Wenyi Shang, Assistant Professor, School of Information Science & Learning Technologies, University of Missouri - Cici Ling, Assistant Professor, Department of Informatics, Luddy School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering, Indiana University Bloomington - Kai Li, Assistant Professor, School of Information Sciences, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville - Andrew Zalot, Assistant Professor, College of Education, East Carolina University - Alex Wingate, PhD Candidate, Department of Information and Library Science, Luddy School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering, Indiana University Bloomington

E-commerce fraudulent websites are a big problem, yet the community lacks open and comprehensive approaches to proactively discover them. In our upcoming NDSS paper we present Loki, a system that mines search engine queries to surface new scam websites. Read our paper here: arxiv.org/pdf/2509.12181
