Fifth Annual Nebraska Digital Workshop
The Center for Digital Research in the Humanities (CDRH) at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln will host the fifth annual Nebraska Digital Workshop on October 1 & 2, 2010. Through a competitive process, selected early career scholars will be invited to present their work in digital humanities.
Workshop Goal
The goal of the Workshop is to enable the best early career scholars in the field of digital humanities to present their work in a forum where it can be critically evaluated, improved, and showcased. Under the auspices of the Center, the Workshop will bring nationally recognized senior scholars in digital humanities to UNL to participate and work with the selected scholars. For information about the Center for Digital Research in the Humanities and faculty biographies, see http://cdrh.unl.edu.

The Workshop will supplement its roster by bringing nationally recognized senior scholars in digital humanities to Lincoln to participate and work with the scholars whose work is selected for presentation.
