The Alliance of Digital Humanities Organizations Standing Committee on Awards has announced the Call For Nominations for the 2017 Antonio Zampolli Prize. The Zampolli Prize recognizes a single output in the field of Digital Humanities by any scholar or scholars at any stage of their careers. As such, it offers a unique opportunity to reward individual projects that have been either formative or had a decisive impact upon the field as a whole. As the prize is awarded to the project as a whole, the recipients can be a single individual or a collaborative group of scholars, researchers and/or practitioners. The output recognized can take any form: published research, developed resources or tool(s) for research. To be eligible for the prize, the nominated project must involve in the innovative use of information and communications technologies.

We are glad to announce that our current EADH president, prof. Karina van Dalen-Oskam, has been elected new chair of the ADHO Steering Committee (SC).
