The Evolving Role of Librarians in Digital Humanities

Prakashbhai N. Makwana, Dr. Geeta Girish Gadhavi


Abstract: In the digital age, the role of librarians has undergone a profound transformation within the realm of digital humanities. This paper examines how librarians have evolved to become essential facilitators, curators, educators, collaborators, and problem solvers in this dynamic field. Librarians now actively facilitate digital humanities research by helping scholars navigate complex digital landscapes, providing expertise in data management, and fostering collaborations between researchers and technology experts. They curate digital collections that underpin digital humanities scholarship, select and acquire digital resources, ensure preservation and accessibility, and engage with content creators and providers. Librarians also play a vital role in promoting information literacy within digital humanities, offering workshops on digital research tools, teaching critical evaluation skills for digital resources, and providing guidance on copyright and intellectual property. They champion collaboration and interdisciplinary partnerships, driving innovation in the digital humanities landscape. Despite facing challenges like funding constraints and evolving technologies, librarians remain indispensable in shaping the future of scholarship in the digital age.
