Below you will find a map with markers to help orient you during your time at THAT Camp. The Omni Shoreham Hotel, where THAT Camp will take place is marked with a dark red marker and label. There are quite a few places to go for lunch in the area. Some options are marked in light green. Other lighter-red color markers represent places where you might find coffee or a light snack during the day.

Proposal: What sort of digital initiatives should the AHA be undertaking? http://aha2014.thatcamp.org/2014/01/04/proposal-what-sort-of-digital-initiatives-should-the-aha-be-undertaking/ Sat, 04 Jan 2014 17:14:28 +0000 http://aha2014.thatcamp.org/?p=254 Continue reading ]]>

In my new role (both for me and for the organization) at the AHA I am tasked with thinking about how the AHA can use the digital environment to better serve our members, the discipline of history, and the historical profession. This is a process that involves creating resources, building services, and leveraging the great work being done in the digital realm across the discipline and on the open web. This should be an exchange between the association and its members (among others) and involve an ongoing dialogue.

I would like to hear from campers what they want from their learned society in the digital realm. How can we utilize the digital environment to better serve the historical profession in the ways they interact with the association, each other, their students, other scholars and the wider world?
