All data found within Enslaved: Peoples of the Historical Slave Trade will be published in the Journal of Slavery and Data Preservation.
The Journal of Slavery and Data Preservation is designed to showcase datasets of historical significance and scholarly rigor. Projects within the journal have been peer-reviewed, found to be historically significant, and are excellent examples of scholarly methods within the field of digital humanities. In the aggregate, the published datasets are wide-ranging in their temporal and geographical scope. Some publications, however, may be narrow in focus. Whatever the scope, all datasets published shall be scholarly in nature and include, at a minimum, 10 fields (that describe a person and an event described in a document), metadata, licensing and copyright information, as well as a textual description intended for multiple audiences.
