The EAJS Digital Forum promotes productive links between the dynamic field of Jewish Studies in Europe and the Digital Humanities. It offers support to European scholars and digital initiatives, facilitates teaching and training through seminars and workshops, and aims to foster methodological reflection and debate. The Forum has been launched at the EAJS conference 2018 in Krakow. Its outlook is international, and it cooperates, in particular, with the Association of Jewish Studies (AJS) and the National Library of Israel (NLI).
