Tully Barnett
Hi all,
While aaDH is looking forward to welcoming delegates to the Australasian Association for Digital Humanities conference in Canberra next week, I draw your attention to the Call for Paper for DH2026, the international conference, in South Korea, with the theme "Engagement". The CFP closes in a couple of weeks. See below for more information and ways to be involved.
Cheers,
Tully

Subject: DH2026 Conference Special Issue: CFP, Call for Reviewers, and
more
Association of Digital Humanities Organizations | November 11, 2025
Chair's Message
We are thrilled to bring you this special issue of the newsletter, devoted to the DH2026 conference. As you have hopefully already seen the Call for Proposals is open, and it will close in just under one month. The conference theme this year, “Engagement”, articulates two subthemes: “Translating | Translinguality in the Era of AI”, “Annotating | Beyond Patterns: Interpretation with Small Data”, and “Remembering | Digital Humanities and the Memory of the World”.
Please be aware that we updated our protocols beginning this year, and the CFP no longer includes panels. There is a technical track available as well, and the conference will be fully hybrid, so remote presentation is an option. Proposals are requested for submission in English, although you are welcome to present in the language of your choice, as the Local Organizers will introduce an (optional) AI-powered translator during conference presentations.
In preparation for the closing of the CFP, the Local Organizing Team and ADHO’s Conference Officer, Walter Schloger, have been working tirelessly in ConfTool to ensure that our reviewer pool is up to date and ready to do the essential and exciting work of reviewing submissions. Thanks to the team for modernizing the backend of ADHO’s ConfTool account and for opening up the Reviewer Sign Up process. If you are not yet a reviewer (or are unsure), please consider filling out the nomination form by December 5. Your contributions to the DH community through reviews are invaluable to developing scholarship across the field.
As you consider submitting and/or reviewing for the conference, take a look through its website and enjoy discovering information about the local arrangements. Thanks to the incredible work of the Local Organizers and the Program Committee!
Best,
Kristen Mapes
ADHO Executive Board, Chair

Call for Reviewers
ADHO invites you to serve as a reviewer for the annual conference, DH2026: Engagement.
Reviewing is both a valuable and much appreciated service to the DH community and an important responsibility. Reviewers will be asked to complete a minimum of four reviews in any of the submission formats available for the conference. DH2026 will use the double-anonymous (double-blind) peer review process. Authors' and reviewers' identities will not be disclosed. All submissions and reviews are expected to be written in English.
Reviewers must meet two or more of the following criteria:
- Be professionally associated (or recently associated) with an institutional DH program, project, or initiative;
- Hold at least a Master’s degree or equivalent in a DH-related discipline (including, but not limited to, the Humanities, Social or Natural Sciences, Library and/or Information Sciences, Fine Arts, etc.);
- Have presented at an ADHO-, CO/AO-, or SIG-organized conference, symposium, colloquium, or equivalent academic event;
- Have published a DH-specific article or essay in a scholarly journal or volume (either print or electronic).
We would be delighted and grateful to have you join us as a reviewer for DH2026 by submitting your nomination using this Reviewer Nomination Form by December 5.
