Dear centerNet,

FYI, using survey responses and interviews, the Center for Digital Research in the Humanities at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln has developed a brief document for promotion and tenure committees and non-tenured faculty preparing tenure folders entitled “P&T Criteria for Assessing Digital Research in the Humanities.” It is located at http://cdrh.unl.edu/articles/promotion_and_tenure.php.

We hope that this information is useful to other university-affiliated centers with tenure-track faculty positions, and if you have comments or suggestions for improving the document, please email the chair of the committee, Russell Ganim, Chair of Modern Languages & Literatures, UNL, at rganim1@unl.edu. Special thanks to Geoff Rockwell for his thoughts relating to this subject.

Best,
