The Association for Computers in the Humanities (ACH) is a professional society for the digital humanities.  It supports computer-assisted research, teaching, and software and content development in humanistic disciplines like literature, history, and philosophy.

Along with seven incredibly talented colleagues I have been kindly nominated as a candidate to serve in the 2013 ACH Executive Council. I am very grateful and honoured to have been included in the ballot.

Members who are in good standing of the Association for Computers and the Humanities (ACH) or a ‘joint’ member of all of the Alliance of Digital Humanities Organizations (ADHO) are entitled to vote in the ACH’s 2013 election.

My passion is creating opportunities for discovery, creativity and innovation. I am an advocate for enhanced access to information as a public good. I enjoy fostering engagement and openness, facilitating collaboration and mentoring. My main focus is multi-disciplinary and involves practically and theoretically connecting the dots between varied, closely-related fields and topics: comics studies; human-computer interaction design, library and information science, digital humanities, scholarly communications, publishing studies, digital innovation and material culture, intellectual rights and open science, access, data and educational resources. I love writing and spreading the word about the things I believe in. I love higher education and the Internet and I define myself as a digital scholarship advocate. I love working collaboratively and on my own. You can still follow me and/or contact me via Twitter @ernestopriego.
