Abstract
In a 2012 ASIS&T panel titled “Humanistic Information Science,” Melanie Feinberg, Jens-Erik Mai, Jonathan Furner, and Joseph Tennis argued that information science as a field “could be richer” if it were to embrace “humanistic approaches to information science” (Feinberg, Furner, Mai, Tennis, 2012). Approximately a decade later, this panel returns to foundational questions about science, the humanities, and information as a field of study to consider the relationship between the digital humanities and information science. How are information science and the digital humanities different? How are they similar? How might work done in one field make a difference in the another? What might digital humanists and information scientists have to say about translation and the transposition of disciplinary knowledge to and from each respective field? How might the translation and transposition of disciplinary knowledge in the humanities and information science inform practice, policy, and action in both and beyond? This panel will provide a forum for attendees of ASIS&T's 86th Annual Meeting to debate answers with leading information scientists and digital humanists from around the world.
