“…To begin with, it is necessary to re-state that previous studies' findings on the limited access to useful resources, such as good quality visual information, that their participants were experiencing [e.g. 18,33] were again validated in this research. Despite the progress that digitization projects have made over the years and the increase in the availability of online material, it became evident that scholars lack digital access, particularly to primary resources and good quality, open access visual material.…”

Over the past decades, the increase in the use of digital resources and the growth of research conducted in digital environments has transformed academic scholarship. The goal of this paper is to highlight the importance of understanding user behavior and needs for building digital libraries and resources that have a positive effect on the whole scholarly workflow. For this purpose, the art historical discipline will be used as a case study; by employing an ethnographic approach to the study of scholarly habits, we managed to uncover the requirements that scholars in the field have in terms of accessing and using digital libraries. The complex information behavior of art historians as well as the challenges they often face when interacting with digital resources make them a great example to demonstrate the impact that digital libraries and archives can have on the research process.

“…(GUERREIRO, 2018: 87) A utilização dos computadores, das tecnologias associadas e das redes informáticas nas Ciências Humanas alteraram substancialmente a forma de recolher, trabalhar e disseminar a informação. Mais do que uma mera máquina de escrever, o computador é uma ferramenta essencial para ordenar, pesquisar e analisar os dados a uma escala cada vez maior (GREENHALGH, 2004).…”

O conceito de Humanidades Digitais refere-se Ã articulação entre as Humanidades e a tecnologia digital e Ã s alterações que estas provocaram quer na forma como se realiza a investigação académica, quer na forma como os seus resultados são divulgados. As bibliotecas digitais, no sentido lato de repositórios do conhecimento, integrando dados relativos aos acervos patrimoniais, constituem-se como fontes de informação privilegiada para o estudo dos objetos museológicos, bem como dos seus historiais e contextos de uso anteriores. Também a comunicação dos museus com os seus públicos processa-se, agora, numa dupla vertente, através dos meios convencionais e através dos meios digitais. Esta última, apesar dos condicionantes que a tecnologia impõe tem vindo a ganhar adeptos e a implantar-se como estratégia da ação museológica.

“…In subsequent decades, scholars in archaeology (Eiteljorg, 2004; Forte, 2015), art history (Greenhalgh, 2004), classics (Crane, 2004), history (Thomas, 2004; Rosenzweig, 2003; Zaagsma, 2013), lexicography (Wooldridge, 2004), linguistics (Hajič, 2004), literary studies (Rommel, 2004), music (Burgoyne et al , 2016; Fujinaga and Weiss, 2004), performing arts (Saltz, 2004), philosophy (Ess, 2004), and religion (Hutchings, 2015) ventured into work involving the digital. At least initially, though, many humanists saw the digital as but an affordance (Goldberg, 2015).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to dissect key issues and debates in digital humanities, an emerging field of theory and practice. Digital humanities stands greatly to impact the Information and Library Science (ILS) professions (and vice versa) as well as the traditional humanities disciplines. Design/methodology/approach This paper explores the contours of digital humanities as a field, touching upon fundamental issues related to the field’s coalescence and thus to its structure and epistemology. It looks at the ways in which digital humanities brings new approaches and sheds new light on manifold humanities foci. Findings Digital humanities work represents a vital new current of interdisciplinary, collaborative intellectual activity both in- and outside the academy; it merits particular attention from ILS. Research limitations/implications This paper helps potential stakeholders understand the intellectual and practical framework of the digital humanities and “its relationship” to their own intellectual and professional work. Originality/value This paper critically synthesizes previous scholarly work in digital humanities. It has particular value for those in ILS, a community that has proven especially receptive to the field, as well as to scholars working in many humanities disciplines. Digital humanities has already made an important impact on both LIS and the humanities; its impact is sure to grow.
