Examining the hyphen: the value of social informatics for research and teaching by Meyer, E

“…One of the reasons for the large discrepancy between Google Scholar and the journal databases and that social informatics is much more visible in the gray non-journal literature (such as conference papers, presentations, course materials, and so forth) than in the published academic literature, I will argue, is that the function social informatics performs for many researchers and students can be thought of as similar to backstage or invisible work that sensitizes researchers to important concepts, but then often recedes into the shadows.…”
