if:book

Via Scribblings and Musings, word of an interesting new blog, if:book, sponsored by the Inbstitute for the Future of the Book.  One of the entries in the if:book blog references a chapter Clifford Lynch has written entitled, “Open Computation: Beyond Human-Reader-Centric Views of Scholarly Literatures” for an upcoming book on open access edited by Neil Jacobs of the Joint Information Committee.  Here among other things Lynch references data-mining and text-analysis efforts at Perseus.
