How about seeing what the Declaration of Independence would look like if you were to open it up on your desk at work or on a train during your commute? Or perhaps you are interested in learning what others thought about that gripping Japanese detective novel you just read? Two new apps presented at DH2024: Reinvention & Responsibility can help you to do just that: Jisedai Reader and Booksnake.

Based on a poster at DH2022, Julia Damerow, Rebecca Sutton Koeser, Jeffrey C. Carver, and Malte Vogl have published a paper in Digital Scholarship in the Humanities describing the work of the Community Code Review Working Group of DHTech.

It’s that time of the year again! For the upcoming two-year term (2025-2026), three seats on the Steering Committee need to be filled. This blog post summarizes the key responsibilities and tasks of the Steering Committee.

We are honored to announce that we have been awarded a $30,000 Chair’s Award from the National Endowment for the Humanities. This grant will create a pilot for a Digital Humanities Research Software Consulting Unit (DHReSCU). DhReSCU’s mission will be to aid early-stage digital humanities research software projects in developing a technical implementation plan.

Our October DHTech Meetup will be on October 10, 2024, at 9am ET/3pm CET. We will briefly introduce the DHTech Code Review Working Group and then talk about how AI tools can support code review, in general and in digital humanities specifically.

At the DH Inside Out Workshop at DH2024, Performant Software Solutions LLC presented EditionCrafter, a tool for creating digital critical editions and archives.
