The Journal of Digital Humanities is currently on hiatus.

An experiment in scholarly communication conducted by RRCHNM’s PressForward Project, JDH was born of the desire to publish the most interesting and innovative digital humanities gray literature. Funded by the first PressForward grant (2011-2014) from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, JDH was closely linked to RRCHNM’s publication, Digital Humanities Now. Metrics for DHNow’s blog posts, conference presentations and white papers were used to identify content for JDH, where it was then revised, expanded upon, and eventually published in quarterly issues.

As an in-house, experimental publication, JDH accomplished its mission to provide essential insight for launching similar publications at a wide range of research organizations, the core focus of PressForward’s second (2014-2015) and third (2015-2018) phases. With this role behind it, JDH is taking a break while we at RRCHNM plan a sustainable second act. Our hope is that JDH will re-emerge as a journal that continues to highlight work in digital humanities. Until then, we are at work on an analysis of JDH’s first two years, and will share that publicly on its completion. Previous issues will remain archived and available for download.
