Data & Digital Scholarship

Support is available for all Libraries’ patrons interested in methods or tools used in digital scholarship and digital humanities. We provide specialized training, consultation, and instruction on open source or proprietary resources for the university community.
Digital Scholarship support is offered by Joshua Ortiz Baco, Digital Scholarship Librarian, and is available to all the University’s colleges, with additional assistance from members of the Scholars’ Collaborative, the Liaison Programs, and the Office of Information Technology’s Research Computing Support.
Our services strive to connect scholars’ and facilitate collaboration
across the many disciplines working in digital scholarship.
