K. Fitzpatrick. New York University Press, New York, NY u.a., (2011)Formerly CIP Uk. - Includes bibliographical references and index; Äcademic institutions are facing a crisis in scholarly publishing at multiple levels: presses are stressed as never before, library budgets are squeezed, faculty are having difficulty publishing their work, and promotion and tenure committees are facing a range of new ways of working without a clear sense of how to understand and evaluate them. Planned Obsolescence is both a provocation to think more broadly about the academy's future and an argument for reconceiving that future in more communally-oriented ways. Facing these issues head-on, Kathleen Fitzpatrick focuses on the technological changes--especially greater utilization of internet publication technologies, including digital archives, social networking tools, and multimedia--necessary to allow academic publishing to thrive into the future. But she goes further, insisting that the key issues that must be addressed are social and institutional in origin. Springing from original research as well as Fitzpatrick's own hands-on experiments in new modes of scholarly communication through MediaCommons, the digital scholarly network she co-founded, Planned Obsolescence explores these aspects of scholarly work, as well as issues surrounding the preservation of digital scholarship and the place of publishing within the structure of the contemporary university. Written in an approachable style designed to bring administrators and scholars into a conversation, Planned Obsolescence explores both symptom and cure to ensure that scholarly communication will remain relevant in the digital future.

K. Gruß, and T. Krejtschi (Eds.) Boje, Köln, Originalausg. edition, (2013)„Eines der wichtigsten Bilderbücher in diesem Frühjahr, das Gesprächsanlässe bietet: Wie fühlt sich ein Kind im Krieg? Karin Gruß beantwortet die Frage nicht, sondern lässt den Betrachter überlegen. Ausgangssituation ist eine Szene, in der ein neunjähriger Junge mit roten Basketballschuhen auf einer Trage zur OP gefahren wird: Eine Granate hat den Bus erwischt, mit dem eine Schulklasse zum Sportplatz fahren wollte. Ob dieses Bildes kommt der Fotoreporter - und mit ihm der Betrachter - ins Nachdenken, unterstützt von den brüchig wirkenden Bildern von Tobias Krejtschi, die die Fragilität eines Kinderlebens unterstreichen“ (Börsenblatt). Von der Stiftung Buchkunst ausgezeichnet als eines der 25 "Schönsten deutschen Bücher" 2013.
