Islamic History Commons
The Islamic History Commons (IHC) is an online social community designed to foster scholarly communication and collaboration among scholars of the field of Islamic History. In an exciting development, the Middle Eastern Medievalists have expressed interest in using IHC to reinvent their web presence and print publication al-Usur al-Wusta. Planning is immediately underway for the design of profile pages that will enable members to easily share their published and unpublished work.Though the IHC is still in initial development, minimal outreach has already gained an impressive 56 members through invitation, many of whom have expressed interest in the site’s potential.
