Dear colleagues, Please find enclosed a series of announcements concerning the upcoming DH Benelux conference (8-9 June 2015 in Antwerp, Belgium), including links to the conference¹s preliminary program and registration form, more information on our bursaries for early career scholars, etc. Preliminary Program It is with great pleasure that we announce the preliminary program for DHBenelux 2015. You will find the program on the conference's website: http://dhbenelux.org/ http://dhbenelux.org/. Please note that this is the *preliminary* program, subject to changes. We were very excited to welcome many great contributions of high quality. Unfortunately this also meant that competition is up and we had to reject a larger number of papers than the previous year. We shall however take it as a positive sign of a well developing DH Benelux community. Please check out this year's host of high quality papers, posters, and demosŠ DHQ: Special DH Benelux Issue It also gives us great pleasure to be able to announce that we have found the editorial board of Digital Humanities Quarterly willing to work together with us on a special issue of DHQ (http://digitalhumanities.org/dhq/ http://digitalhumanities.org/dhq/) on the occasion of DHBenelux 2015. The special issue will show case the highlight contributions to the conference. Bursaries for Early Career Scholars We are also proud to announce that we can offer a limited number of bursaries to early career scholars who wish to attend the DH Benelux conference. In addition to a reimbursement fee to cover travel and accommodation expenses, the bursary will include an invitation to the conference dinner at the Antwerp Zoo, and a waiver of the recipient¹s registration fee. For more information on these bursaries please refer to the dedicated section on our website (http://dhbenelux.org/#Bursaries http://dhbenelux.org/#Bursaries ). Registration It remains then for us to once again kindly invite you to join us for this exciting digital humanities event in the beautiful and bustling city of Antwerp. Registration is now open. We offer discount fees for early bird registration (until May 15). Please refer to the registration form (http://dhbenelux.org/#Registration http://dhbenelux.org/#Registration ) for more information. Please also note that instead of an integrated fee payment system we rather make use of decentralized highly intelligent payment systems that are able to ensure timely payment of fees to the appropriate account (this means you). Reminder: Workshop on Visualization in DH Finally, we also wish to remind you that the University of Antwerp¹s Platform Digital Humanities is organizing a three day workshop on 'Visualization in Digital Humanities' that will immediately follow the DH Benelux conference (10-12 June 2015).
