About
The original “Tools for Humanists” report (Nguyen and Shilton 2008) evaluated more than 30 digital tools designed for use by the humanities community. The report focused on the success of these tools not as measured by metrics of effectiveness or performance, but rather by the accessibility of tools. The report defined accessibility broadly. Could users easily discover, recognize, and begin to use tools built by U.S. Digital Humanities Centers (DHCs) and intended for digital humanists?
