Hi all,
I’m currently working with three colleagues on a Mellon-funded
research project to explore the skills and competencies
required to support digital scholarship in the humanities and
social sciences. In order to define benchmarks, we will be
visiting ten “best in class” digital scholarship centers
around the world, five in North America, five international.
When we met Alex Gil at the Digital Humanities conference, he
suggested that we post a message to the group introducing
ourselves and our project. We’re interested in hearing from
the GO::DH community about potential locations for us to visit
during the next year. We are using a variety of criteria to
identify potential sites to visit. These include impact,
innovation and/or strong training and education programs, as
well as a willingness to participate in a site visit. Please
email me at
lisamspiro@gmail.com
if you would like to suggest a site for us to visit (including
your own institution) or have any questions. For more
information about the project, please see our blog at

Thanks,
