- Authors
Taylor, Scott K.
- Abstract
This article presents discussion of the discipline and methodology of historical scholarship and research as of 2009 and reflects on possible changes which could occur within the field in the following 40 years. Particular focus is given noting the impact of digital archiving and the Internet on all manner of academic and social practices in the early 21st-century, suggesting that it is impossible to see just how drastically information access has already changed the discipline. Additional comments are given noting trends of democratization in the scholastic environment.
