Digital Humanities, Data, and the role of MIT Libraries
Three librarians involved with digital scholarship at the MIT Libraries will present on some of the context for DH at MIT skills they are building in order to grapple with some issues in digital humanities, especially around data and evidence. This informal panel will cover the way that librarians are building support for digital humanities at MIT, how to approach the question of evidence in the humanities when using non-traditional forms of data, and how online research spaces like HATHITrust figure with increasing prominence in the development of corpora and tools for digital humanists.
