>DRH 99 @ King's College London 12-15 September 1999 is open for
>registration!  We are pleased also to announce that the CTI Centre for
>Textual Studies is sponsoring several bursaries for arts and
>humanities teaching staff in UK higher education who are attending DRH
>for the first time, and that a complete catalogue of exhibitions and
>demonstrations is now online.  So that delegates may take advantage of
>these new opportunities, the deadline for early registration has been
>extended to 24 August.
>
>The Digital Resources for the Humanities conferences are a major forum
>for all those affected by the digitization of our common cultural
>heritage: the scholar creating or using an electronic edition; the
>teacher using digital resources as an aid to learning; the publisher
>finding new ways to reach new audiences; the librarian, curator or
>archivist wishing to improve both access to and conservation of the
>digital information that characterizes contemporary culture and
>scholarship; the computer or information science specialist seeking to
>apply new scientific and technical developments to the creation,
>exploitation and management of digital resources.
>
>The conference will take up three intensive days of academic papers,
>panel discussions, technical reports, and software demonstrations, in
>the heart of London.  The atmosphere will, we hope, encourage much
>energetic discussion, both formal and informal.  Leading practitioners
>of the application of digital techniques and resources in the
>Humanities, from the worlds of scholarship, librarianship, archives,
>museums, galleries and publishing will be there, exchanging expertise,
>experience, and opinions.
>
>For the three days of the Conference, 22 publishers, data providers
>and researchers will exhibit 45 products ranging from work-in-progress
>to well-established resources.  These products are for teaching and
>research across the humanities and in the social sciences, in such
>fields as archaeology; art history, classics, drama, history, literary
>studies in English, German and Spanish, medieval studies, palaeography
>and philosophy.  They include bibliographic aids, texts, still and
>moving images and integrated multimedia resources.  A catalogue for the
>exhibition may be found online, at

>information and computer technology in history.  In particular, it will
>focus on the creation and use of digital representations of historical
>resources and the effects of computer-based technologies on historical
>scholarship and on teaching history.  For more information visit the
