3. What is the digital humanities?
“The application of algorithmically facilitated
search, retrieval, and critical processes
that, originating in humanities-based work, have been
demonstrated to have application far beyond.
Associated with critical theory, this area is typified by
interpretative studies that assist in our intellectual and
aesthetic understanding of humanistic works.”
A Companion to Digital Humanities, edited by Susan
Schreibman, Ray Siemens, and John Unsworth (2004)

5. Collaboratories
“A center without walls, in which researchers can
perform their research without regard to physical
location-interacting with colleagues, accessing
instrumentation, sharing data and computational
resources, and accessing information in digital
libraries.”
—W.A. Wulf, “The Collaboratory Opportunity,”
Science (1993)

6. What is the role of the library in DH?
“[The] Digital Humanities revolution promotes a
fundamental reshaping of the research and
teaching landscape. It recasts the scholar as
curator and the curator as scholar, and, in so doing,
sets out both to reinvigorate scholarly practice by
means of an expanded set of possibilities and
demands, and to renew the scholarly mission of
museums, libraries, and archives.”
—Digital Humanities Manifesto 2.0 , 2009

9. Role of Librarians in Research
• Research Libraries UK report
• ACRL Value of Academic Libraries report
• Tyler and Skinner, New Roles for New Times: Digital
Curation for Preservation:
“Digital Humanities practitioners are producing many
different types of content, all of which require ongoing
management in order to maintain their viability.
Regardless of the location of the digital humanities
group(s) within the campus setting, the library has roles
to play in helping these initiatives to produce and to
manage sustainable resources for present and future
generations.”

Hinweis der Redaktion
The American Memory archive at the Library of Congress; proprietary databases such as Eighteenth Century Collections Online and ARTStor; Google Books: digital collections are becoming increasingly instrumental in how humanities scholars find and use research resources. For the past couple decades, the focus was on quantity: How much material can a library or museum digitize and post online? (Zick 689) But now we in libraries ask: How can digital collections meet scholars’ research needs? In answer to this question, I’d like to briefly talk about The Bamboo Technology Project and within it, my study of humanities scholars and digital collections.
