Center for Digital Scholarship

The Center for Digital Scholarship (CDS) partners with faculty and students on the digital design, implementation, and circulation of their research. The CDS can shepherd digital projects from their inception to their eventual archival treatments, creating responsible lifespans for these projects and their related data. We work closely with our Archives and Special Collections unit to bring historic resources into the digital world, and to capture and archive new resources properly.

Services We Offer

Geospatial Services Program

The CDS is also home to the Library’s Geospatial Services program. We regularly work with students and faculty on specific research needs related to geospatial data.

Data Services

Our Social Sciences and Data Librarian offers assistance with the discovery, acquisition, and use of social science data and related software program.

Research Project Collaboration

We host interdisciplinary faculty research projects, provide support for student and faculty digital scholarly projects, and provide incubator space with our Scholar-in-Residence program.
