This issue was curated by Colleen Nugent McLean, DHNow Project Manager.
Our first Editors’ Choice critiques DH for its entanglement with environmentally damaging digital infrastructures and asserts that DH is not neutral in the climate crisis. The authors propose a new framework that would reframe DH as a field in relation to the environment. The second selection is an article that considers the dynamic networks revealed through the use of the CIDOC Conceptual Reference Model (CRM) in cultural heritage institutions. Our third selection introduces a comparative tool for assessing AI-generated transcription tools. We have included upcoming events and opportunities, as well as data resources and a celebration of Public Domain Day 2026.
