Welcome to the DigiLab
The DigiLab was founded in 2015 as an initiative of the UGA Libraries, Willson Center for Humanities and Arts, and UGA Press to serve as a collaborative hub for the Digital Humanities. Today, the lab continues to serve the digital humanities and members of UGA’s interdisciplinary research community at large. It is a multi-use instructional space coordinated and supported by the Department of Research and Computational Data Management in the UGA Libraries. It is located on the third floor of the Main Library (room 300) and is accessible to faculty, staff, and students using their UGA ID cards.
