Dear Colleagues,
As co-membership officer and VP of the Association for Computers and
the Humanities (ACH), I’m writing to encourage past members to rejoin the
organization and new members to join it in advance of our upcoming
elections. Those elections open on March 1, and only members who have
renewed for 2018 are eligible to vote. Make sure your voice is heard by
renewing and updating your email with Oxford University Press before
February 28th.
If you plan to attend the DH 2018 conference in Mexico City and want
to take advantage of reduced member registration rates, consider
registering now so that you can have a say in ACH’s future. Or, if you want
to support ACH publications such as the open-access *Digital Humanities
Quarterly* and Humanist-l, join now and become an ACH member. We have many
exciting upcoming ventures, including the first-ever US-based ACH/Digital
Humanities Conference, to be held in Pittsburgh in 2019. The upcoming
elections are crucial for these and other activities in ACH’s future.
Registration is $40 for members and $26 for students. You can renew
by following the directions you received in an email from Oxford
University Press or by visiting the ACH Membership page:
http://ach.org/membership/ .
If you’re not sure whether your renewal was successful, or if you
encounter any problems with renewal, please email OUP customer service at
jnls.cust.serv@oup.com, and cc membership@ach.org. To escalate an
issue, you can email membership@oup.com, but be sure to cc
membership@ach.org so we can help ensure your renewal is processed
correctly.
While renewing your membership, make sure your OUP profile is up to
date with your current email address. OUP will be sending out the ballots
to the email address they have on file (which may be different than the
email address where you’re receiving this message).
If you have any questions or concerns, please get in touch with us at
membership@ach.org.
Thank you and we hope that you will join or re-join us soon!
Best,
Matt
