Abstract

In order to gain a more refined understanding of the current working styles and habits - as well as the prospective future needs of - scholars in philosophy and the broader humanities, a non-probabilistic, online survey has been conducted. This report presents the findings from that survey. This survey is part of a user needs assessment plan for the DISCOVERY Project. DISCOVERY (Digital Semantic Corpora for Virtual Research in Philosophy) is co-founded by the European Commission under the eContentplus program.

Keywords: digital humanities, surveys, technology
