While most academic publications use an authorship model, an alternative approach is contributorship. Contributorship is more inclusive and recognizes the broader set of individuals that contribute to and enable knowledge production–a boon for arts-integrated and community-engaged research! The most widely adopted contributorship model, CRediT (Contributor Roles Taxonomy), offers a high-level taxonomy that recognizes fourteen contributor roles. However, these roles are designed with bench and lab science in mind and do not account for some of the work involved in other collaborative research. In response, Ground Works has collaboratively created a version of CRediT adapted for arts-integrated research: CRediT-FAIR. For CRediT-FAIR, we have both augmented the description of some of the original fourteen roles and added four new roles to the taxonomy so as to better include arts and arts-research practices. In this webinar, we will explore the taxonomy itself and the Ground Works pilot of it for our special edition “Creating Knowledge in Common,” which features academic/community partnerships that center the arts and design.
