Storytelling with Primary Source Collections: Livingstone’s Zambezi ExpeditionCampbell Colleen
Abstract: JSTOR Global Plants contains over 2 million digitized plant specimens and hundreds of thousands of digitized primary source materials contributed by herbaria from all over the world. Livingstone’s Zambezi Expedition, created by JSTOR Labs and the JSTOR Global Plants team, curates and organizes a portion of this content as an experiment in story-telling and story-discovery within large primary source collections. With it, users can explore Livingstone’s expedition both chronologically and geographically, discovering stories like Livingstone’s dawning awareness of the horrors of slavery, the conflict and correspondence with the expedition funders, and personal stories like the tragic death of Livingstone’s wife. Reaction since launch has been especially powerful amongst our herbaria partners, who are eager to contribute similar stories.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.
