Building Capacity for DH in the Library: A “Learn by Doing” Approach

Hello! I am Ashley Sanders, Ph.D. Director of the Claremont Colleges Digital Research Studio Faculty, History & Cultural Studies, Claremont Graduate University You can find me at @throughthe_veil

“DH scholarship is deeply rooted in and wholly compatible with library and archival science.” John W. White, Laying the Foundation: Digital Humanities in Academic Libraries (2016), xii

“…librarians are critical partners in DH instruction and inquiry and … libraries are essential for publishing, preserving, and making accessible digital scholarship.” John W. White, Laying the Foundation (2016), xii

DH in the Library: Professional Development Program Intro to DH Short Course Digital Scholarship Knowledge Workshops Skill-Building Workshops Library DH Maker Week Sustained support

Introduction to Digital Humanities 1 A short course for faculty & graduate students AND A short course for librarians

http://dhatccl101.com

Learning Objectives Key Learning Objectives: Topics: Develop your own definition of DH, especially in a liberal arts context Know when to incorporate digital tools and methodologies and determine why Critically examine the strengths and weaknesses of existing tools and DH projects Identify sources to find and learn new digital tools and skills Topics: Definitions of “Digital Humanities” & “Digital Literacy” Data Spatial & temporal visualizations Network analysis Topic modeling

By the end of the short course, librarians will be able to… Explain what digital humanities/digital scholarship is to an interested faculty member Describe the resources available at the library that support digital scholarship Answer basic questions about what methodologies and tools are available for faculty research and instructional projects Point interested faculty, staff, and students to websites, journals, organizations, and local experts for further information

We learn best by doing.

DH Project Proposal Assignment Working in teams of 4, design a DH project. You don’t have to build this project – only design it. dhatccl101.com/2015/12/03/dh-project-plans/ Just a few ideas (but certainly not exhaustive!): The project could focus on some aspect of librarianship – for example, creating data visualizations of our collections or usage data – or a project around some of our special collections materials – like the fascinating fan that served as an early London theater-goer’s guide to “who’s who” and their seat location.

Lessons Learned

Lessons Learned Identify what is meaningful to your target audience. Start small. Schedule in dedicated time. Identify available expertise within library & beyond. Celebrate & value both process & product. Identify faculty & student interests, which may also serve as drivers of digital scholarship.
