SSRN Announces New Humanities Research Network (HRN)

The Social Science Research Network (SSRN) is pleased to announce the creation of the Humanities Research Network (HRN). HRN will provide a world-wide, online community for research in all areas of Humanities, following the model of the other subject matter networks within SSRN (http://www.ssrn.com).

We expect HRN to become a comprehensive online resource for research in humanities, providing scholars with access to current work in their field and facilitating research and scholarship. Initially, HRN will begin with the following networks:

HRN CLASSIC RESEARCH NETWORK
Director: Lesley Dean-Jones, University of Texas at Austin

HRN ENGLISH & AMERICAN LITERATURE RESEARCH NETWORK
Director: Susan Heinzelman, University of Texas at Austin

HRN PHILOSOPHY RESEARCH NETWORK
Directors: Lawrence Becker, Hollins University and Brie Gertler,
University of Virginia

+ More from ACRLog

Shirl’s note: I keep hoping they will implement RSS feeds for each of their categories (e.g., like Intute), but it hasn’t happened yet…though feeds are available for individual authors.
