Definition[]
Cyberscholarship is academic research using high-performance computing which can access large digital libraries. The technology allows new forms of research and scholarship that are qualitatively different from traditional ways of using academic publications and research data. Cyberscholarship is possible only when most of the content in a field is accessible to computer programs. Cyberscholarship requires software tools, some of which are complex to develop, and it requires access that is unimpeded by complex legal or financial barriers.
