Women’s History in the Digital World 2015, the second conference of The Albert M. Greenfield Digital Center for the History of Women's Education, will be held on the campus of Bryn Mawr College on May 21-22. We aim to bring together experts, novices, and all those in between to share insights, lessons, and resources for the many projects emerging at the crossroads of history, the digital humanities, and women’s and gender studies. Continuing a conversation begun at our inaugural meeting in 2013, the conference will feature the work of librarians and archivists, faculty, students, and other stakeholders in the development of women’s and gender histories within digital scholarship. 

 

  • The conference will feature a keynote address by Claire Bond Potter, Professor of History and Co-Director of the Humanities Action Lab at The New School for Public Engagement. Panels will be scheduled during the day Thursday, May 21, and the morning of Friday, May 22. For updates, follow the Greenfield Digital Center on Twitter @GreenfieldHWE and the conference hashtag, #WHDigWrld. Bryn Mawr College is located eleven miles outside of Center City Philadelphia, easily accessible by both car and public transportation.
