Abstract
In this 2009 article, we present details of the first year work of the INKE
(Implementing New Knowledge Environments) research group, a large international,
interdisciplinary research team studying reading and texts, both digital and printed.
The INKE team is comprised of researchers and stakeholders at the forefronts of
fields relating to textual studies, user experience, interface design, and information
management. We aim to contribute to the development of new digital information and
knowledge environments that build on past textual practices. We discuss our research
questions, methods, aims and research objectives, the rationale behind our work and
its expected significance—specifically as it pertains to our first year goals of laying a
research foundation for this endeavour.
