Welcome to the DSC!

The Digital Scholarship Commons is part of the UVic library and is located on the 3rd floor. Here we:

  • Assist faculty, students, and staff in learning digital tools and methodologies to help them pursue their passions and tell their research stories in engaging ways, in a welcoming, equitable, and diverse environment.
  • Encourage interdisciplinary work across campus in order to spark cross-disciplinary conversations.
  • Offer services to help our UVic community become well-versed in digital information fluency through one-on-one training, workshops, digital curriculum development advice, tools, software, and more.
