The DLF Digital Scholarship Working Group formed at the 2017 Forum in Pittsburgh to bring together librarians, coordinators, specialists, and project managers working in digital scholarship broadly or digital humanities specifically and sharing the charge of supporting digital research projects, coordinating community efforts, and bridging campus silos with few resources, minimal infrastructure, and informal partnerships. The group includes those working in established, fully staffed digital scholarship units or centers whose experiences enrich discussions and inform initiatives.

The DLF DSWG Zotero group is intended as a Digital Scholarship reading list, curated by members of the DSWG.
Creative Engagements
We are always on the lookout for creative, rapid-prototype, distributed-effort ways of engaging with each other. If you have any creative idea you want us to pursue that will help us understand an issue or improve our work, make sure to bring it up for discussion on the Google Group.
Projects
DLFxDHSI 2018
DLFxDHSI was a one-day unconference—a grassroots, conversation-based event without predetermined presentations—on the theme of digital libraries, digital humanities, and social justice, hosted by the Digital Library Federation in partnership with the Digital Humanities Summer Institute (DHSI) in Victoria, BC, June 8-9, 2018. The event began with a DHSI Institute Lecture by DLF Executive Director Bethany Nowviskie "Reconstitute the World: Machine Reading Archives of Mass Extinction" and a joint DLF/DHSI poster/digital demo session and reception on Friday. The highly collaborative and interactive DLFxDHSI unconference sessions ran throughout the day on Saturday, June 9. Find the shared notes for unnconference here.
Digital Scholarship Organizational Structure
At the 2018 DLF Forum breakfast session, DSWG began answering the question "What does your Digital Scholarship environment look like?," collecting data from members about job titles, unit names, team members, contingent positions, reporting lines, main issues, etc. Additions and reuses of the open access, crowdsourced dataset are welcomed.
