Many public historians are beginning to make use of digital humanities tools and practices without calling it the digital humanities. How are public historians using the digital humanities? What is going on in the field digitally? Megan Barney, Megan Woods, Katie Woods, Lauren Bergnes, Mahala Nyberg, Hailey Philbin, and Shannon Webber, all graduate students in Public History, will present on their experience at the National Council on Public History Annual Meeting. Attendees will get a conference recap and learn about the role of public historians in the digital world.

DH Open Office Hours are a great way for beginning and experienced researchers to share knowledge about how to use different tools, or to turn an idea into a solid project. We’ll also share current and completed projects, as well as our experiences with many different facets of the DH world. There will also be informal talk sessions with visiting digital scholars. This is a great opportunity to meet other students and faculty who are interested in DH and see what they’re up to. Feel free to bring your lunch!

DH Open Office Hours are held every Wednesday from 12:00 - 1:00 PM in the Digital Scholarship Commons Media Lounge, located on the second floor of Snell Library (take a right out of the stairwell, head through the glass double doors, and take an immediate left toward the orange couches).
