News: Highlights

ADHO reconsiders the platforms for communicating with the DH community more effectively. We prepared a short survey to gain insights into the social media presence of Digital Humanities professionals worldwide to inform ADHO social media strategy, COs practices and individual members to build stronger connections and increase engagement within the community. We kindly ask each of you to devote 2-3 minutes of your time and fill out the survey.

We want to hear about what you are planning for the Day of DH. Is there a lecture, book discussion, social event, or other activity happening in your community on the Day of DH? Let us know by filling out this simple form.

We are pleased to share with the DH community a series of interviews with journal founders Julia Flanders, Melissa Terras, John Walsh, and Wendell Piez, discussing the journal’s creation, evolution, and insights into the field of Digital Humanities.
