    Subject: [DHSI] Deadline Extended: Garfinkel Prize in DH & ASA DH Caucus
    Book Award, May 31st
    To: <institute@lists.uvic.ca>

    Dear Colleagues,

    *The DH Caucus of the American Studies Association has extended the
    deadline for the 2021 Garfinkel Award for DH Projects
    (https://www.theasa.net/communities/caucuses/digital-humanities-caucus/garfinkel-prize-digital-humanities)
    and the ASA DH Caucus Book Award to May 31, 2022.*

    The Digital Humanities Caucus welcomes submissions from all including
    college and university faculty; public scholars; university and K-12
    educators including contingent faculty; students at the graduate,
    undergraduate, and even K-12 level; activists; artists; and all other
    researchers, creators, and thinkers. Projects in pedagogy, research,
    documentary, critical making, digital art, and all other forms are
    encouraged.

    Submitted projects should have been published, completed or significantly
    updated during the 2021 calendar year. The Digital Humanities Caucus will
    announce the prize winners at a virtual celebration in May.

    The Garfinkel Prize in Digital Humanities is an award that honors caucus
    founder Susan Garfinkel for her longstanding service to the caucus and her
    commitment to an inclusive, interdisciplinary, welcoming Digital
    Humanities. For both the Garfinkel Prize and Book Award, the caucus seeks
    submissions that grapple with urgent questions that are specifically
    situated in practices of studying at the intersection of American Studies
    and Digital Humanities.

    For the Garfinkel Prize, we especially seek submissions that: 1) model
    ethical and equitable collaborations that responsibly reflect on the
    politics of collaborative research in the digital humanities; 2)
    participate in transparent and open scholarly practices; 3) center research
    topics that “promote the development of interdisciplinary research on U.S.
    culture and history in a global context” (following ASA’s stated purpose);
    4) address these topics through anti-racist, feminist, community-led or
    activist modes and methods.

    For the book award, we especially seek submissions that: 1) center research
    topics that “promote the development of interdisciplinary research on U.S.
    culture and history in a global context” (following ASA’s stated purpose);
    2) address these topics through anti-racist, feminist, community-led, or
    activist modes and methods; 3) are written collaboratively; 4) and/or
    engage the complicated politics at play in DH collaborative research. We
    seek not only scholarly monographs; we invite submissions of trade books,
    self-published collectively written zines, and other alternative formats.

    *The DH Caucus is accepting proposals now through May 1, 2022 May 31st.*
