Digital Humanities SoCal
Mary Litch (Chapman University) and Jana Remy (UCI and Chapman University) created the DH SoCal site in 2010 with the hope that it would evolve into a virtual meeting place and bulletin board for events relevant to faculty, students and support staff in southern California with an interest in digital humanities. DH SoCal is a collaborative network of professionals from various fields in the digital humanities. It has no governing body, governing rules, or dues. Twitter users may wish to follow @dhsocal and add #dhsocal to any Tweets related to digital humanities in Southern California.

The Digital Humanities Summer Institute provides an ideal environment for discussing and learning about new computing technologies and how they are influencing teaching, research, dissemination, creation, and preservation in different disciplines, via a community-based approach. A time of intensive coursework, seminars, and lectures, participants at DHSI share ideas and methods, and develop expertise in using advanced technologies. Every summer, the institute brings together faculty, staff, and students from the Arts, Humanities, Library, and Archives communities as well as independent scholars and participants from areas beyond.

Annual Conference of the Alliance of Digital Humanities Organizations (ADHO)

The ADHO organizes and sponsors an annual conference. The first joint conference was held in 1989 at the University of Toronto. That event was the 16th annual meeting of ALLC (Association of Literary and Linguistic Computing) and the ninth annual meeting of the ACH (Association for Computers and the Humanities)-sponsored International Conference on Computers and the Humanities (ICCH). Since then, the joint conference has grown to include additional organizations, and it has been held in cities around the world.
