Faculty & Staff

Reference & Instruction Librarian for Humanities and Digital Scholarship
Office: Gould Library 471

Email: scalhoun@carleton.edu

I work in the Library as the R&I Liaison Librarian for Humanities and Digital Scholarship. As part of that, I help to supervise the Digital Humanities Associates and Digital Scholarship Interns, and work closely with many other groups around campus and at St. Olaf to help support digital scholarship work. The thing that most excites me about digital scholarship is its potential for improving accessibility of scholarship, both in terms of reaching scholars with disabilities but also helping to cross language and writing system barriers.

I teach courses on digital methods, history courses with strong digital components, and collaborative courses in a number of departments that incorporate digital project work. I also co-supervise the Digital Humanities Associate program that trains undergraduates to help coordinate research and pedagogy projects in humanities classrooms. Read my full profile.

My name is Clark Glymph (he/him) and I am new DSI (Digital Scholarship Intern) this fall working on the front end side of things. I am a current junior and a member of the Class of 2026! I was drawn to this job through my interest in Computer Science and Humanities and by taking an intro class in Digital Humanities last Winter. I love learning about design (huge Pinterest lover) and accessibility and I am excited to see the new skills I will gain from this internship in the coming months.
