Aims & Scope

Digital Studies / Le champ numérique (DSCN) is a refereed academic journal that serves as an Open Access area for formal scholarly activity and as a resource for researchers in the digital humanities. It is published for the Alliance of Digital Humanities Organizations under the direction of the Canadian Society for Digital Humanities/Société canadienne des humanités numériques (CSDH/SCHN) by the Open Library of the Humanities. Submissions to DSCN focus on the intersection of technology and humanities research, including the application of technology to cultural, historical, and social problems; the societal and institutional context of such applications; and the history and development of the field of digital humanities. Submissions focusing on issues of the practice of the digital humanities in a global, multicultural, or multilingual context are particularly encouraged. As a rule, submissions to DSCN should be of generalizable import: project reports and technical notes are welcome when they discuss significant milestones in the history and development of the field or are clearly extensible. DSCN rarely publishes criticism of digital objects (e.g., game criticism, literary criticism of electronic art or literature); it does so primarily in the context of special issues.
