DRHA

The Digital Resources for the Humanities and Arts conference is a major forum for dissemination of ICT in arts and humanities research. The 2005 programme included a plenary session about the AHRC ICT programme, which focused on the Methods Network and E-Science, as well as the new strategic initiatives by the AHRC and future directions for ICT in the Arts and Humanities in the UK.

In 2006 the Methods Network and the Arts and Humanities e-Science Support Centre (AHESSC) held poster sessions at the Digital Resources for the Humanities and Arts (DRHA) conference, and Lorna Hughes (Methods Network) presented a paper at one of the two e-Science panels organized by Stuart Dunn (AHESSC). A presentation given by Neil Grindley (Methods Network) is now reproduced as a working paper on this website. See the DHRA 2006 website for more information about the programme.
