One element of developing Toronto350.org has been learning how to do complex cooperative work using a devoted group of volunteers.
This afternoon, we are having a ‘bibliography party’ for our University of Toronto divestment brief.
We will be taking all the sources people have collected and putting them into biblatex format. It will then be easy to incorporate them into our LaTeX document and produce nicely formatted footnotes and a good bibliography.
Then it will just be a matter of finishing each section of the brief and sending it out to experts for comment. It will need to be run by some people who can comment on the science, others who can comment on the law, and others who are familiar with the U of T administration.
In the end, we should have an authoritative and meticulously cited document explaining why divestment makes ethical and financial sense, and why it is in keeping with the university’s existing divestment policy.
Best of luck with all that! It sounds like you will have a very useful document in the end.
