Main Library, Digital Scholarship Lab, Flex Space (2nd Floor, West)

Join the Digital Humanities at MSU for our fourth annual DH Research Showcase in the MSU Main Library, Green Room (4th Floor, West), where recipients of DH summer funding will discuss their projects, and where we invite all faculty, staff and students working on DH projects to share their projects in process.

Please feel free to bring your own lunch.

The interdisciplinary field of digital humanities (DH) aims to bring together humanistic inquiry and digital technologies, organizing new modes of archival research, developing computer-aided methodologies for answering humanistic questions, curating digitized archives of all kinds, bringing digital platforms into the classroom in creative ways, and engaging critically with the culture of new media.
