The Scholar’s Box: A Tool for Gathering, Creating, and Sharing Reusable Digital Learning and Research Content

The Scholar’s Box is a tool that enables users to gather resources from multiple digital repositories in order to create personal and themed collections and other reusable materials that can be shared with others for teaching and research. As such, it sits at the interstices of digital libraries, educational technology, personal information spaces, and social software.

Even at an early stage of development, the Scholar’s Box showcases the many fruitful possibilities and deep challenges emerging from practical interoperability among these still thinly connected domains. This briefing will include a demonstration of the Scholar’s Box, and a discussion of the strategic, functional, and technical design challenges behind the tool, including the perspective of a major digital library.
