Networked publishing and communication is becoming an increasingly important part of modern humanists´ scholarly work. This course gives you basic knowledge concerning: networking technology, different formats that are used in online publishing, technologies used when handling these formats, as well as training in adaptation and the use of different mediums for networked communication.
