Digital Humanities Awards 2014
Voting is now open for the Digital Humanities Awards 2014. Two projects supported by the University of Oxford have been nominated, including the Wandering Jew's Chronicle Research Archive by Giles Bergel, which is hosted at the Bodleian Library, and EEBO-TCP. Please visit the DH Awards website for the full list of nominated projects.
The Digital Humanities Awards are a set of annual awards where the public is able to nominate resources for the recognition of talent and expertise in the digital humanities community. The resources are nominated and voted for entirely by the public. The weeding out by the nominations committee is solely based on the criteria of “Is it DH?”, “Is it in the right category?”, and “Was it launched/published/majorly updated in that year?”. These awards are intended as an awareness raising activity, to help put interesting DH resources in the spotlight and engage DH users (and general public) in the work of the community. Awards are not specific to geography, language, conference, organization or field of humanities that they benefit. Any suitable resource in any language or writing system may be nominated in any category. DH Awards actively encourages representation from more minority languages, cultures, and areas of DH. All nominated resources are worth investigating to see the range of DH work out there.
