The stats here are very much based on my personal contacts: if we could have a more community based effort then we could maybe get a wider spread.<br /><br />JISC data, erm... I got those stats from the NEH database, which you can query - so it probably doesnt include the JISC contribution, thinking about it... darned statistics.<br /><br />Re: Jisc - yes, I think we have to think about what a contribution means - surely digitisation is a contribution, as well as the escience programme, other programs, etc... we need to rethink this whole section, I think. Still a worthwhile exercise in seeing what I could pull together in a month, total, I think... but there is always more work to do...Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00759369628908140089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-962447465856397284.post-33248104996899651532012-01-23T12:20:59.875+00:002012-01-23T12:20:59.875+00:00Great stuff, well done.

Despite the map at the top the infographic looks very anglocentric; there must be more ways of representing activity in non-English speaking countries.<br /><br />2) Is the JISC-NEH stuff drawn from the joint JISC-NEH Digitisation grants? Or does that include Digging into Data as well ?<br /><br />3) In terms of the AHRC grants, I have a larger number of projects (488) but roughly the same funding figure (c.£124m) (http://www.peelingwall.org/ahrc.html) Can talk about this in more depth.<br /><br />4) Um, no JISC-only contribution to the Digital Humanities at all ... ? We'll have to rectify that :-)Alastair Dunninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01093222251178441334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-962447465856397284.post-26219791883662784512012-01-23T11:28:37.117+00:002012-01-23T11:28:37.117+00:00on crikey, Lou.
