Digital Humanities @ Duke University Libraries

Schedule an appointment with a Duke subject specialist to identify subscription databases or open text and data sources for your project. It can be helpful to browse existing lists of text and data sources, and investigate if Duke already subscribes to a particular database by checking Duke Research Databases. A subject specialist will also work with you on licensing and copyright issues.
