"This anthology is suitable for scholars and students interested in learning more about the changes in documentary studies. It is accessible for advanced undergraduate or graduate classes. ... New Documentary Ecologies provides the first book-length foray into the emerging field of online documentary. This volume offers a series of broad perspectives without losing sight of its goals. It is that rare volume with something for theorists, enthusiasts, producers, and the otherwise curious." (Heather McIntosh, International Journal of Communication, Vol. 11, 2017)
