The Digital Resources for the Humanities conferences have established themselves firmly in the UK and international calendar as a major forum bringing together scholars, postgraduate students, librarians, archivists, curators, information scientists and computing professionals in a unique and positive way, to share ideas and information about the creation, exploitation, use, management and preservation of digital resources in the arts and humanities. At this, the tenth DRH conference, we plan to encourage papers and sessions that focus on critical evaluation of the use of digital resources in the arts and humanities. What has the impact really been? What kinds of methodologies are being used? What are the assumptions that underlie our work? How do we know that the work that we accomplish is truly new and innovative? How does technology change the way that we work? Proposals for individual papers, sessions, workshops and posters are invited, and the abstract submission system at the conference website will be accepting proposals from January 31st, 2005. Types of presentation for which proposals are invited:
