¶ 1 Leave a comment on paragraph 1 0 Humanities scholars work in groups within departments, scholarly journals, conferences, editorial projects, seminars, etc. but publication credit is usually given to a single author.

Below we make some general recommendations for collaboration as well as offering a statement, “The Collaborators’ Bill of Rights.”
