Brown University Library requests funding to support a hybrid three-week summer institute (July 11-29, 2022) with virtual and in-person components for fifteen participants who wish to develop innovative born-digital scholarship intended for publication by a university press but lack the necessary resources and capacity at their home institutions. The Institute will equip humanities scholars from all career levels and across disciplines with in-depth knowledge of the digital publishing process, familiarity with open source tools and platforms, advanced project management skills, concrete and individualized plans for project advancement, and top-level publishing industry contacts. Centered on inclusivity and accessibility, the Institute aims to broaden the range of scholars producing born-digital publications and, by extension, the audience for digital humanities scholarship. |
