Does Every Research Library Need a Digital Humanities Center?
Notes
1. Our intended audience is decision-makers of all sorts in research libraries: university librarians,
deans, deputies, directors of research services, directors of archives, heads of special collections,
and others who are responsible for decisions about investment in DH. For the sake of brevity, we'll
refer only to "library directors" and "directors" from here onward.
2. Interest in digital humanities is not new at OCLC Research. For instance, in 2008 we organized a
symposium about the humanities and digitization of special collections:
