Digital Resources for the Humanities 2001
A conference that brings together the creators, users, distributors, and
custodians of digital resources in the Humanities.
8th to 10th July, 2001
School of Oriental and African Studies, London
The annual Digital Resources for the Humanities conference is the major
forum for all those involved in, and affected by, the digitization of our
cultural heritage. The conference brings together scholars, teachers,
publishers and broadcasters, librarians, curators and archivists, and
computer and information specialists, providing an opportunity to consider
the latest ideas in the creation and use of digital resources in all
aspects of work in the humanities.
This year the conference will be held at the School of Oriental and African
Studies, University of London. As well as concentrating on the creation of
digital resources, providing access to digital projects, and digital
preservation, this conference will consider the challenges of building
communities within a diverse and global context, with papers on the
following themes:
Visualisation of data
A managed digital environment
Diversity and multi-culturalism
World wide access
Convergence
As well as the formal academic programme of papers, panel discussions,
exhibitions and presentations, the conference will provide an enjoyable
range of social activities where delegates can meet and informal discussion
can flourish.
The conference fee of £200 (+VAT) includes full conference attendance and
all the social activities. Full details of the conference and on-line
booking form are available from the web site at www.drh2001.soas.ac.uk
