The Digital Forum seeks to enhance the visibility of important research projects at the intersection of Jewish Studies and Digital Humanities with its series of Showcases, published regularly in the EAJS Newsflash and online. The Showcases describe and evaluate specific digital approaches in an accessible format, inviting EAJS members to explore the potential of the Digital Humanities within Jewish Studies.
