Les digital humanities et les bibliothèques Pour l’historien du religieux Milad Doueihi, auteur de La grande conversion numérique, les sciences humaines et sociales (SHS) sont les grandes absentes du débat autour de l’impact du numérique sur nos sociétés. Pour lui, l’environnement numérique est actuellement en crise, car il s’est « appuyé jusqu’ici sur certains éléments de la culture imprimée » qui ne sont plus adaptés à ces nouvelles pratiques. Un nouveau « savoir-lire » fait son apparition : le savoir-lire numérique 1. Pour Doueihi, ce nouvel environnement est caractérisé par une « culture du changement rapide et de l’adaptabilité ». Ce changement est principalement contrôlé par les spécialistes de la technologie qui imposent leurs normes et leurs logiques au public. Histoire et esquisse de définition Définir les digital humanities n’est pas une tâche aisée. Pour l’équipe française du Manifeste des Digital Humanities (2010), il s’agirait plutôt d’une « transdiscipline 6 ». Acteurs et lieux Réalisations Janvier 2012

Keeping Up With...Digital Humanities | Association of College & Research Libraries This edition of Keeping Up With... was written by Jennifer L. Adams and Kevin B. Gunn. Jennifer L. Introduction At its core, Digital Humanities (or DH) is an emerging, interdisciplinary movement which looks to enhance and to redefine traditional humanities scholarship through digital means. DH encompasses a wide range of definitions, activities -- and controversies Some see Digital Humanities as a discipline unto itself; others define it as a movement within existing disciplines; still others argue that DH represents the future norm of humanities research and should simply be called “humanities.” DH invites—and demands—collaboration with parties outside of the library Supporting long-term digital research usually requires working with third parties. Librarians need additional training and education in order to contribute effectively Before making a contribution, librarians must ascertain the expertise required for a particular project. DH research relies heavily on data. Conclusion DevDH.
Digital Humanities Now dh+lib ← where the digital humanities and librarianship meet 18thConnect - TypeWright TypeWright1 is a tool for correcting the text-version of a document made up of page images. These text-versions are crucially necessary: they are what enables full-text searching, datamining, preserving, and curating2 texts of historical importance. Right now, the text running behind the page images of these texts has been mechanically typed,3 leaving behind errors that need to be corrected by human eyes and hands. Our contracts with Gale and Proquest allow any person or group who corrects a text to be given that text when finished correcting it to use as they wish.
