Interdisciplinary Research Centre in Digital Humanities

The Interdisciplinary Research Centre in Digital Humanities (IDRC DH) brings together a cross-service team, which enables research innovation by providing sustainable support for DH projects.

The DH Hub was initially established as part of a wider initiative to drive research innovation, promote ambition and encourage experimentation in the University’s Heritage & Creativity theme. More about the DH Project at UoR

DH projects are those that use digital methods to address humanities research questions or that use critical traditions in humanities research to engage with digital technologies. More about DH

The IDRC DH now works alongside the DH Hub team (based in the University of Reading Library) to support researchers in building knowledge and skills in DH, developing and undertaking DH research projects, and maintaining digital research outcomes. More about Research Support

The University of Reading is home to a range of approaches in DH, including corpus analysis, geospatial mapping and 3D reconstruction. See our DH Case Studies
