This MIT Press book is available as an open access PDF on the press’s website. It contains an essay, "How to Evaluate Digital Scholarship," which outlines guidelines for assessing works of digital scholarship for promotion and tenure.

The authors intend the text to inform institution-wide however, the recommendations are a guide and not specific to any single discipline or subject area. The book provides an overview of the development of digital humanities in four chapters, and takes the reader from a bdiscussion and definition of the field to an overview of the methods and types of digital humanities research to the role of the digital humanities in society. The authors provide A Short Guide to the Digital_Humanities, also an open-access PDF, which contains a discussion of how to evaluate digital scholarship.
