Getting Started in Digital Humanities: Library Research Guide

Kathy Weimer, Coordinator of the Map & GIS Library at Texas A&M University Libraries,  has created an extensive Digital Humanities Library Guide at http://guides.library.tamu.edu/dh. The guide offers resources for those new to the field as well as more experienced DHers, with a handy DH toolkit and sections devoted to professional development, spatial humanities, DH in libraries,  and professional organizations and issues (such as tenure and promotion). Good work,  Kathy!
