摘要:In the light of new digital production and dissemination practices, the
scholarly publishing system has seen significant and also disruptive
changes, especially in STM (science, technology and medicine) and with
regard to the predominant format “journal article.” The digital transformation also holds true for those disciplines that continue to rely on the scholarly monograph as a publication format and means for reputation building,
namely the Humanities and the Social Sciences with a qualitative approach
(HSS). In our paper we analyse the reasons why the monograph has not yet
reached its full potential in the digital paradigm, especially in the uptake
of Open Access and innovative publishing options. We highlight some of
the principal underlying factors for this, and suggest how especially practices, now more widespread in HSS but arising from the Digital Humanities, could play a role in moving forward the rich digitality of the scholarly
monograph.
