Does any one use #Obsidian for taking notes of *archival docs*?

I've seen folks use it to organize writing/historiographical notes, but not sure how to use for arch research. For ref, I use #onenote for research, grouping notes by archive.

The Trump administration had high hopes that its compact would be accepted by every university. Alas, it appears that every university rejected the administration except for its safety school. open.substack.com/pub/danieldr...

What a generous review from Magadalena Gil. I appreciate her engagement with my work and the important questions she raises for the period that follows my study.

Academia.edu has been really helpful in connecting with scholars in South America. There is where I found their latest research.

It's really sad that the change of terms of use, which includes new AI features, forced me to delete my account.

🌳 Indigenous land and health

Analysis of 20 years of Amazon data shows Indigenous Territories can lower fire-related disease risks and shape zoonotic disease patterns, depending on forest cover and legal status.

Just like there are no people without history, there is no landscape without history.

a brilliant thread on the invisible drainage infrastructure underneath farmland in northern Germany calling us to read the land as a product of history 👇
Obwohl ich es ja weiß, bin ich immer wieder schockiert, dass wirklich fast alle verdammten Senken in der Agrarlandschaft an die #Entwässerung angeschlossen sind.

Hier 👇 n Beispiel.
(und das sind nur die gewidmeten Gräben & Rohrleitungen, d.h. die ungewidmeten + Drainagen sind da nicht mal drin.😐)

I did a short version of this activity with sophomore majors and was excellent!

A great ice-breaker to jump right into the historian's work.
