| Introduction | I'm professor of digital humanities, in HATII (Humanities Advanced Technology and Information Institute), University of Glasgow. I was previously Chair in Digital Humanities at the School of Advanced Study, University of London. From 2011-15, I was University of Wales Chair in Digital Collections, based in the National Library of Wales, and a Senior Research Fellow at the Centre for Advanced Welsh and Celtic Studies. I led a research programme based around the digital collections of the National Library of Wales. My research focus is understanding the use, value and impact of digital resources on research, teaching and public engagement. I’m particularly interested in the use of ICT tools and methods for the analysis of large-scale digital collections, and in research collaborations between humanities and scientific disciplines. I’ve been involved in digital humanities for about 20 years: I’ve worked at Glasgow University, Oxford University, Arizona State, NYU, and King’s College, London. |
