Funded by a Chief Librarian’s Innovation Award, the DPHLAs wrote new Wikipedia articles and created digital exhibits based on their research that make underrepresented histories more accessible and enrich perspectives of the past and present.

In addition to presentations by the DPHLAs about their research and digital public history content, U of T Libraries staff will briefly present on resources and services that support digital public history in the classroom and for your own research.

The event is hybrid. Please register to attend, either in-person or online. We will be in the Blackburn Room (fourth floor; see directions) at Robarts Library, where light refreshments will be provided. Online event registrants will be e-mailed a link for remote participation. The event will not be recorded.
