Humanist Discussion Group, Vol. 27, No. 665. Department of Digital Humanities, King's College London www.digitalhumanities.org/humanist Submit to: humanist@lists.digitalhumanities.org Date: Thu, 2 Jan 2014 10:06:44 -0600 From: Lisa Spiro <lisamspiro@gmail.com> Subject: ADHO Announces Members-Only RatesThe Alliance of Digital Humanities Organizations (ADHO, http://adho.org/) is pleased to announce new membership-only rates, which we hope will remove any financial barriers to participation. By selecting the membership-only option, members of ADHO and its constituent organizations (The European Association for Digital Humanities, Association for Computers and the Humanities, Canadian Society for Digital Humanities / Société canadienne des humanités numériques, centerNet, Australasian Association for Digital Humanities, and Japanese Association for Digital Humanities) will not receive LLC: The Journal of Digital Scholarship in the Humanities, but will be eligible for reduced conference rates and other benefits. To join ADHO and all of its constituent organizations under the membership-only option, select "Membership - Society fee" at Oxford University Press' web page for ADHO membership and LLC subscriptions ( http://www.oxfordjournals.org/our_journals/litlin/access_purchase/price_list... ).
Membership-only rates are set based upon the scholar’s home country, using Oxford University Press’ list of countries eligible for subscription for free or at reduced rates. Members from “A” list countries will receive free membership, while those from “B” list countries will receive reduced rates of 25 USD. All other members under the membership-only option will pay a modest 40 USD.
ADHO Steering Committee Chair Neil Fraistat notes: “While we hope that most members will continue subscribing to LLC as part of their membership, we are delighted to be able to make membership in ADHO more widely affordable, and we are grateful to Oxford University Press for their support in making this important shift to member-only rates. We are also grateful for Harold Short’s splendid leadership on this initiative.”
