Commission on Fostering and Sustaining  Diverse Digital Scholarship
American Council of Learned Societies
Commission Committee Member
November 2021 – Present

The American Council of Learned Societies is pleased to announce its Commission on Fostering and Sustaining Diverse Digital Scholarship, made possible by the Mellon Foundation as well as the National Endowment for the Humanities.  Under the leadership of commission chair Marisa Parham, this group of scholars, librarians, archivists, publishers, and University leaders will analyze the current challenges in providing equitable access to the creation and sustainability of digital resources and projects related to social and racial justice. Via a series of roundtables, working papers, and a final report, the Commission will make strategic sector-wide recommendations for strengthening the opportunity structure for resolving such challenges. These efforts will bolster both the quantity and integrity of those digital resources and digital humanities projects that diversify and increase inclusivity of humanistic scholarship.
