The Alliance of Digital Humanities Organizations (ADHO) invites its members to
propose a Special Interest Group (SIG). By forming a SIG, those with similar
professional specialties, interests, and aptitudes can exchange ideas, stay
current, and mobilize to pursue common goals across the boundaries of ADHO’s
individual Constituent Organizations.

For example, ADHO’s first SIG, Global Outlook::Digital Humanities
http://www.globaloutlookdh.org/ (GO::DH), aims to reduce barriers to
communication and collaboration “among researchers and students of the Digital
Arts, Humanities, and Cultural Heritage sectors in High, Mid, and Low Income
Economies” by promoting discovery, community-building, research, and advocacy.

To propose a SIG,
http://adho.org/administration/steering/draft-protocol-adho-special-interest-g
roups-sigs, an elected or appointed contact person should submit a description
of the
group to ADHO’s Chair, currently Neil Fraistat nfraistat at gmail.com.

Please see the SIG protocol,
http://adho.org/administration/steering/protocol-adho-special-interest-groups-
sigs, for directions about producing the SIG proposal, a model proposal, and
further information.

If you will be attending DH 2013, we invite you to a SIG Slam, where those
interested in starting a SIG can do one-minute pitches about them and meet
with others who share their interests. The SIG Slam will take place during the
joint ADHO/centerNet General Members meeting at lunchtime on Friday, July
19th.

Best,

Neil
