Dear Friends and Colleagues,

We’re very pleased to announce the 2024 Digital Humanities Summer Institute!
DHSI 2024 will run 3–7 June (Week 1) and 10–14 June (Week 2).

The past few years have been a bit of a wild ride, but even in the alternative
online and hybrid formats we were exploring, we came together as a community and
made the best of what was possible.  Fully online DHSI offerings featured about
1000 participants a week, and our measured return last year to one week of our
more traditional format gathered a group of over 300 in-person, with some 550
additionally joining for the online week. We’re excited to return to two in-
person weeks for 2024 and are really looking forward to working together with
you toward it!!

* What is DHSI?

The Digital Humanities Summer Institute (DHSI) provides an ideal environment for
discussing and learning about new computing technologies and how they are
influencing teaching, research, dissemination, creation, and preservation in
different disciplines, via a community-based approach.  A time of intensive
coursework, seminars, and lectures, participants at DHSI share ideas and
methods, and develop expertise in using advanced technologies. Every summer, the
institute brings together faculty, staff, and students from the Arts,
Humanities, Social Sciences, Library, and Archives communities as well as
independent scholars and participants from areas beyond.  Described by one
participant as an event that "combines the best aspects of a skills workshop,
international conference, and summer camp," DHSI prides itself on its friendly,
informal, and collegial atmosphere. We invite you to join the DHSI community in
Victoria for a time of focused practice, learning, and connecting with (and
making new) friends and colleagues.

* Fabulous 2024 Offerings (Plus Registration & Scholarships)

Offerings for 2024 are the result of consultation with our community about the
topics and material we'd all like to see covered at DHSI now and in the future,
as well as an open call for proposals. Our course list continues to grow, and we
are committed to maintaining smaller class sizes in order to maximize our
learning together!

At the moment, preparations for our 40+ 2024 course offerings and aligned
activities continue to hum along in Victoria, and our 'quiet' launch of our new
website and registration system (!) has resulted in courses beginning to fill
... starting a bit ahead of anticipated schedule. As in the past: if there's a
course you or a member of your team absolutely need, we’d recommend registration
earlier rather than later for it!

In addition to a great mix of classic and new courses (recommended by our
community), we've got some great talks in store from Leigh Bonds (Ohio State U),
Maciej Eder (Pedagogical U Kraków), and Amanda Madden (George Mason U), with
more news of others soon – -- as well as several aligned conferences and events:
the DHSI Conference and Colloquium (Kyle Dase, U Victoria), Project Management
in the Humanities (Lynne Siemens, U Victoria), Open, Digital, Collaborative
Project Preservation in the Humanities (Luis Meneses, Vancouver Island U),
GraphPoem (Chris Tanasescu, Open U Catalonia), among others!

Further, as we do every year, we'll have the pleasure of awarding a number of
tuition scholarships. Application is via https://dhsi.org/scholarships-
bursaries/, and these scholarships cover tuition costs with the exception of a
small, non-refundable administration fee (students $150, non-students $300). The
absolute deadline to apply for scholarships is 14 February 2024, though the
scholarship committee considers applications on a regular, rolling basis and
evaluates applications based on need, merit, and course availability at the time
of consideration. Scholarship spots tend to fill exceptionally quickly! We’re
also hoping to work, as we've done in the past, with a number of groups to offer
additional support in the form of travel bursaries (!); details on our website,
as we have more news on that.

* Wonderful Partners and Sponsors

DHSI is organized for our community by the Electronic Textual Cultures Lab and
takes place on the University of Victoria campus.  Please see our archive for
our offerings since 2001, beginning at Vancouver Island University, and our
partnered events and offerings worldwide.

We're very, very happy to welcome and continue working with our new and
returning partners and sponsors! You can find details of this fine group at
https://dhsi.org/partners-sponsors/. FYI, membership in these groups allows
discounted registration (details at https://dhsi.org/registration-fees/).

2024 is shaping up to be another banner year, and we hope very much that you are
considering joining our community for it!    (And do tell a friend : )

In anticipation of welcoming you to DHSI in June,

Ray
