This is a selected list of humanities data sources with a focus on resources designed for computation. (Researchers may also want to explore primary sources, which can also be humanities data.) No list of data sources could ever be complete. Please ask a librarian for guidance on identifying more specific data sources.
Digital humanities is the use of digital technologies to pursue research questions in the humanities. Research data is the raw material we need to examine these questions. When you think of the “digital humanities,” you might picture visualizations such as word clouds, multimedia web-publishing projects, or interactive historic maps.
