Shifting expectations: Revisiting core concepts of academic librarianship in undergraduate classes with a digital humanities focus tle

This article explores best practices for supporting digital humanities(DH) activity and pedagogy in the undergraduate classroom on campuses without a DH center in the library. By examining specific aspects of librarians’ curricular engagements, with a particular focus on reference and instructional activity, we discuss how

reenvisioning these services aids in the development of effective support for both faculty and students engaged in DH. An included case study illustrates how redefining “traditional” librarian liaison roles and shifting expectations of faculty from one-shot instruction sessions to embedded librarianship models can be put into

practice in undergraduate classrooms with a DH focus. The article concludes with a discussion of the librarian as digital humanist and how this role can positively impact undergraduate curricula.
