Abstract

This is a story about a staff member, a librarian-mentor, and a failure-turned success. It is a story about a learning process to pick the right digital tool during a short affair with digital humanities. In the effort to create a digital annoated bibliography, the librarian-staff collaborators decided to experiment with GitHub and Jekyll, two systems that they were both unfamilar with. The presentation focused on the challenges faced by the collaborators, the lesson they learned, and how the managed to finish the project in a short period of time with the intention to coummincate the importance of sharing failures as well as success at conferences. This script was presented at Digtial Fronties 2019 Conference at the University of Texas at Austin in Austin, TX on September 27, 2019. The original title of this presentation was “GitAnnotated: Creating a Digital Annotated Bibliography on GitHub.”
