Dear all,
We are pleased to announce that the registration is now open for DHSI-East 2026, which will take place at St Francis Xavier University in Antigonish, Nova Scotia, from Tuesday 5 May to Friday 8 May. Faculty, staff, students, and all interested welcome.
We have three concurrent workshops this year: "Project Management in the Humanities,” led by Dr. Jennifer Guiliano; "Research Data Management for Humanities Researchers,” led by Shahira Khair and Sandra Sawchuk; and “Digital Publishing in the Humanities Classroom,” led by Dr. Andie Silva and zelda montes.
Dr. Susan Brown will offer the keynote talk: “‘Show Your Work’: Linking, Platforming, and Deplatforming for the Future of Born-Digital Scholarship”
We are also welcoming applications for accommodation grants to subsidize the cost of attendance at DHSI-East for student participants (undergraduate and graduate); BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Colour) participants; and under-employed participants (those in precarious positions and/or underwaged positions).
For details, including workshop descriptions, link to register, and link apply for the accommodation grant, see: https://www.stfx.ca/research/digital-humanities/dhsi-east
DHSI-East workshops are eligible to count towards the Canadian Certificate in Digital Humanities/Certificat canadien en Humanités Numériques (cc:DH/HN). For more information, see https://ccdhhn.ca/.
DHSI-East 2026 is made possible in part by SSHRC (the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada).
