[UNF-DHI] 2022 DHI Digital Projects Showcase Call for Abstracts & Fall announcements

[Pfister, Anne]

We are now accepting proposals for the 2022 DHI Digital Projects Showcase!

This year's Digital Projects Showcase will be held in-person at the UNF Gallery on November 4, 2022. The annual DHI Digital Projects Showcase provides an opportunity for students, faculty, and staff to share teaching or scholarship practices that make use of information technologies to solve problems in interesting or original ways.

Abstract proposals are due October 3. All members of the UNF community are invited to participate! We also invite proposals from individuals or groups representing other universities or cultural institutions. We are interested in presentations dealing with projects at any stage of development, as well as presentations on methods and tools. Presentations may highlight a project in its entirety or may address a specific aspect of a larger undertaking.

Submit your abstracts here by Oct. 3<https://unf.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9RmCHLHizkmLP14>

Please encourage colleagues & students to submit and feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

Other Announcements:

  *   The Fall DHI Advisory Committee Meeting will take place on Friday, September 23rd at 3pm via Zoom
     *   As usual, this will be an open meeting - please invite any faculty and students who might be interested in getting involved with DHI.
     *   We will announce opportunities for advancing DHI-affiliated projects and the development of our growing institute.
     *   Have a project you'd like to pitch or know folks with projects that might be DHI affiliated? Please send them my way!

  *   Community Advisory Board: At our Spring 2022 meeting, we voted to pass a proposal from the Outreach Subcommittee to create a Community Advisory Board for the UNF Digital Humanities Institute, beginning in Fall 2022. The board would consist of 8-12 members drawn from our partner organizations or the community. Board terms would be 3 years in length, with the possibility of renewing for a second term. Board members would be required to attend two meetings yearly --  the Fall Advisory Committee general meeting and a springtime meeting of the Community Advisory Board, and would be encouraged to attend our Annual Digital Projects Showcase.

  *   We are now accepting nominations for Community Advisory Board Members. You can submit your nominations here: https://unf.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_9nayg1MqHGHm5Dw
  *   The portal will remain open until September 15th at which point the current DHI Director will select 6-10 board members to begin serving in 2022-23 and 2-4 additional in 2023-24 to ensure staggered turn over.
