DHCommons (http://www.dhcommons.org) and centerNet (http://digitalhumanities.org/centernet/) are pleased to announce that, as of January 5, 2012, DHCommons will become a sponsored initiative of centerNet. As a centerNet initiative, DHCommons will help lower the cost of entry into digital scholarship and bridge gaps between large humanities centers and solo practitioners around the world. Together, DHCommons and centerNet will continue to develop the web-based collaboration hub at dhcommons.org, sponsor face-to-face events at a range of humanities conferences, seek grant funding for a program of micro-grants that would help connect solo digital humanists with resources and expertise in the larger digital humanities community, and jointly plan the future DHCommons platform. Together, DHCommons and centerNet will dramatically simplify collaboration among a range of scholars, institutions, and centers.
