Medicine, Social Science, Education, Geography, or Climate Change;

such as Literature and Music, Social Sciences and NLP, Language studies
and Education;

developing countries and communities;
* Digital Humanities research in low-resource environments;

Humanities.

Call for chapter submissions: “Libraries, Archives, and the Digital Humanities”
Isabel Galina Russell and Glen Layne-Worthey, editors
(Under contract for publication with Routledge in its new series, Companions to the Digital Humanities.)
We’re seeking proposals from the community for chapter contributions to a volume on “Libraries, Archives, and the Digital Humanities.”
This volume will cover a wide range of issues encountered in the world’s libraries, archives, and special collections as they continue to expand their support of, and direct engagement in, DH research and teaching.
We’re interested in DH-related questions both as they reflect the library and archival professions’ traditional values and practices, and as those values inform and enhance evolving DH work generally. We hope to reach beyond topics such as digitization and digital repositories (which have been extensively covered in the library literature) into newer areas of inquiry.
In addition to topics related to the practice of librarianship, and to libraries and archives as DH-friendly institutions, we will address issues of importance to library and archives workers themselves: training and reskilling in digital humanities methods; labor issues; organization and infrastructure; and focused professional practices that reflect the increasingly important role of librarians and archivists as active research partners in large collaborative projects.
We are especially interested in receiving chapters from a wide range of countries and cultural contexts in order to reflect the diversity of the profession around the world.
Topics to be covered include:
• Libraries, archives, and DH as an ecosystem
• Library and archival collections as data
• Infrastructures
• Libraries and archives as DH publishers; Open Access
• Copyright, fair use, and ethics in DH work
Please send your chapter proposal (250-500 words), including chapter title and the topic section the author(s) suggest may be the best fit, and a cover letter, with name and contact information (250-500 words) describing your interest in contributing a chapter by 11 March 2022 to the editors, Isabel Galina Russell <igalina(a)unam.mx<mailto:igalina@unam.mx>> and Glen Layne-Worthey <gworthey(a)illinois.edu<mailto:gworthey@illinois.edu>>. If you have any questions, please contact the editors.
Acceptance decisions will be made by the end of March. First drafts of accepted chapters (maximum 8,000 words) will be due 10 June 2022, and final chapters due in September 2022.
For more details on the book’s proposed sections and specific topic ideas, please see:
https://libraries-archives-dh.github.io/
Note on Open Access: Routledge offers several Open Access publishing options. The editors hope to publish as many chapters of the volume as possible in Open Access, and are committed to work with authors and libraries to accomplish this goal.
https://www.routledge.com/our-products/open-access-books/publishing-oa-book…
While we are seeking funding to support Open Access for the entire volume, we hope to count on the support of individual authors who may have access to institutional funding for their own chapters. Please be in touch with the editors to discuss options.

Dear list members,
We apologize for those of you who have already answered, but we would like to send this reminder to please participate in our survey.
As part of the Mellon-funded initiative “Communicating the TEI to a multilingual community,” we are researching the contexts and uses of the Text Encoding Initiative among the global Spanish-speaking community. If you have used the TEI for your research or taken any TEI course at any level, and you are either part of the Global Spanish-speaking community or work with Spanish texts encoded in TEI, you are kindly invited to answer these questions.
We are interested in surveying the different scenarios where TEI is used, the geographical diversity, and needs for training and learning resources. We are launching this survey in the hopes of covering all those Spanish-speaking areas, but also all those projects and users from other regions working with Spanish primary sources (e.g. projects in the US, using primary sources in Spanish, etc.).
The survey consists of 22 questions and should not take more than 10 minutes to complete. The survey is anonymous, although we ask about your affiliation and nationality in order to obtain a better understanding from a geographical point of view (we do not ask for demographic information such as age, gender, ethnicity or religion).
The survey’s data will be used for a Report on the uses of the TEI and the needs of the Spanish community.
The survey can be answered either in Spanish or English and will remain open until February 28, 2022. Please share it with colleagues and friends who might be able to contribute!
Follow this link to the Survey: https://bit.ly/encuestaTEI or copy and paste the URL into your internet browser: https://umiami.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_aWx84qH6cih9Xf0
We really appreciate your collaboration and we truly value the information you can provide us.
Do you have questions? Please email our research team via contacto(a)tthub.io<mailto:contacto@tthub.io> or directly to Susanna Allés-Torrent <susanna_alles(a)miami.edu<mailto:susanna_alles@miami.edu>> or Gimena del Rio Riande <gdelrio(a)conicet.gov.ar<mailto:gdelrio@conicet.gov.ar>>
