About
In recent years, the topic of digital scholarship has gained new significance in scholarly arenas around the world. The growing number of digital studies centers has provided an alternative to the tenure-track academic path for recent Ph.D.s in the humanities. In the United States, two recent examples of digital scholarship’s continued growth are the creation of the Office of Digital Humanities under the National Endowment of the Humanities and the attempt by the American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS) to encourage new methods for collaborative research through grant initiatives.
