Perspectives on paradata

An edited volume "Perspectives on Paradata: Research and Practice of Documenting Process Knowledge" (eds. Huvila, Andersson & Sköld) describes paradata and paradata practices in a wide range of disciplines.  

The open access book published by Springer in the series Knowledge Management and Organizational Learning (IAKM, volume 13) examines a rapidly 'datafied' society, reminding us that it is crucial to know what data is about and where it originates. This insight has led to an embryonic stage of new theorizing, empirical research, and the formation of new technologies, standards, practices, and concepts to ensure the availability of adequate 'paradata' – data on the making and processing of data. The volume aims to provide a cross-disciplinary overview of perspectives on the concept and phenomenon of paradata and its implications for research and practice.

More information about the book can be found already at publishers website.
