 Welcome to the NEH's Office of Digital Humanities Minimize

The Office of Digital Humanities (ODH) is an office within the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH). Our primary mission is to help coordinate the NEH's efforts in the area of digital scholarship. As in the sciences, digital technology has changed the way scholars perform their work. It allows new questions to be raised and has radically changed the ways in which materials can be searched, mined, displayed, taught, and analyzed. Technology has also had an enormous impact on how scholarly materials are preserved and accessed, which brings with it many challenging issues related to sustainability, copyright, and authenticity. The ODH works not only with NEH staff and members of the scholarly community, but also facilitates conversations with other funding bodies both in the United States and abroad so that we can work towards meeting these challenges.

Our colleagues at JISC recently passed along a call for papers (PDF) for the Digital Resources in the Humanities and Arts conference, which is to be held at the University of Cambridge from September 14-17. Given our recent work with JISC, this year's conference theme is particularly compelling: discussions of "new collaborative environments, collective knowledge and redefining disciplinary boundaries."  The deadline for submissions is April 30, 2008, so act now!
