“…Like collaboration, infrastructure permits digital humanities to extend its reach both inside and outside the academy (Babeu, 2011; Crane et al , 2007; Edmond, 2016; Svensson, 2015). Cyberinfrastructure comprises “The layer of information, expertise, standards, policies, tools, and services that are shared broadly across communities but developed for specific scholarly purposes” (American Council of Learned Societies, 2006, p. 1).…”

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.

“…The emerging data curation community now conceptualizes itself as including humanities and social science data as well as scientific data (Crane et al, 2007). This immediately presents a challenge: to what extent can shared frameworks of common concepts do justice to best practices, current and future, in such widely disparate areas?…”

Originally focused on scientific data, the data curation community is now taking up the curation problems of humanities data as well. Sharing concepts and terminology across these domains should be valuable for both the practice of data curation, and the education of data curation professionals. To convene a discussion of the possibilities we outline an exercise mapping NASA's well‐known four “data levels” to practices and concepts in traditional textual criticism.

“…Le programme britannique Digital Social Research a mis en commun des investissements antérieurs dans l'eSocial Science : il englobait ainsi la recherche à forte concentration de données dans les sciences sociales et l'étude de l'eResearch (Digital Social Research, 2013). Le nom eScience désigne souvent le travail des données dans l'ensemble des champs de recherche, y compris les sciences humaines (Crane et al, 2007). Cyberinfrastructure reste un terme résolument américain qui recouvre à la fois le travail des données et le cadre technique qui rend ces activités possibles.…”
