What is THATCamp?

THATCamp stands for “The Humanities and Technology Camp.” It is an unconference: an open, less formal meeting where humanists and technologists of all skill levels learn and build together in sessions proposed on the spot (From: http://thatcamp.org/about).

Who is THATCamp for?

This day-long, in person, fun, unconference is a fantastic opportunity for people on campus, whether formally a part of the DH@MSU community or not, to gather, learn from each other, and make connections to carry forward into the academic year. We welcome:


Members of the DH@MSU community, old and new
Students in the Digital Humanities undergraduate minor or graduate certificate, and students interested in the minor/certificate
Humanists who are engaged in digital and computer-assisted research, teaching, and creation
Anyone doing or interested in exploring work in the digital, especially (but not exclusively) in the areas of arts, humanities, and social sciences


Why THATCamp MSU?

DH@MSU is continuing our annual THATCamp each August targeted at MSU faculty, staff, and students for a few reasons:


To bring people back together after the summer
To introduce new folks to the DH@MSU community
Share knowledge, expertise, and skills among the community
Build connections between community members for future collaborations, troubleshooting, and ice cream social time.


THATCamp is FREE! Please register here.

MSU Library’s Visiting Scholars program welcomes researchers at all levels to make use of our world-class collections related to (but not limited to) popular culture, comics, rare books, Africana, LGBTQ activism, Michigan writers, cookery and foodways, as well as both the radical left and right. Every summer, a cohort comes to the Library’s Special Collections Reading Room to conduct research and, toward the end of their time, presents on what they were able to discover in our collection and how it advances their scholarship. The presentations are an informal way to connect with scholars and their research at MSU Libraries.
