If you're interested in how historians are using digital collections, sources and tools, and more broadly how historical research is changing in this digital era, you might be interested in this seminar series. 

Cheers, Mia
 
The IHR Digital History Seminar convenors are pleased to announce the Autumn 2017 / Spring-Summer 2018 seminar dates and topics, with an exciting series of talks on a diverse range of topics.

Seminars are held on Tuesdays from 5.15pm to c6:15pm. They're usually live-streamed for people who can't make it into central London. Everyone is invited for a drink and a meal in a local venue afterwards.

Since it began in 2012, the IHR Digital History Seminar discusses historical research that made possible by the use of digital tools and resources. It is hosted by the Institute of Historical Research and is offered in association with IHR Digital.
