DHNow

GUEST EDITORS' CORNER

DHNow Guest Editor Program

DHNow is an experiment in reversing the direction of the publication process. Because there is no direct submission process, our ability to “catch the good” is dependent upon our taking the widest view of the digital landscape as possible. With help from the community, we aim to surface and highlight pieces that advance digital humanities scholarship and practice. Guest editors are our eyes and ears in the global Digital Humanities landscape; we are excited to see what you can find!

You can find detailed instructions on how to apply here.

What am I signing up for?

Guest Editors sign up for a semester-long commitment to identify exciting work produced or shared by the digital humanities community and nominate scholarly work and news items for the DHNow Project Coordinator to prepare for distribution on Wednesdays.

Each Guest Editor will be expected to commit to one week a month for the duration of the semester. We bring the editors together at the start of each semester for an orientation and to meet each other as a team. We ask that you plan for about half an hour a day during the week (Monday-Friday) to read and nominate content for publication. Content nominated on Fridays will be considered for publication the following week. At the end of your semester, we will invite you to give us feedback, both on the pieces that you found and on the nominating process itself.
