Applications are now being accepted for the third (and final) Digital Humanities Data Curation Institute workshop, to be held at Northeastern University, April 30-May 2, 2014. Visit the Institute Web site to complete an application by January 31, 2014. Workshops are limited to 20 participants, and applicants will be notified regarding acceptance in mid-February. As the application indicates, “Thanks to support from the National Endowment for the Humanities, limited funding will be available to offset the cost of attending the institute workshops and will be awarded based on need.”
Digital Humanities Data Curation Institute workshops aim to provide a strong introductory grounding in data curation concepts and practices, focusing on the special issues and challenges of data curation in the humanities. The three-day workshops are “aimed at humanities researchers — whether traditional faculty or alternative (alt-ac) professionals — as well as librarians, archivists, cultural heritage specialists, other information professionals, and advanced graduate students.”
