| Title | Google’s Digital Humanities Grants Include Language Work |
| Body | From http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2010/07/our-commitment-to-digital-humanities.html Google’s Digital Humanities Research Awards will support 12 university research groups with unrestricted grants for one year, with the possibility of renewal for an additional year. The recipients will receive some access to Google tools, technologies and expertise. Over the next year, Google will provide selected subsets of the Google Books corpus—scans, text and derived data such as word histograms—to both the researchers and the rest of the world as laws permit. (The collection of ancient Greek and Latin books described at http://booksearch.blogspot.com/2010/06/google-releases-500-scans-of-ancient.html is a taste of corpora to come.) This year’s recipients include the following: Gregory R. Crane, Tufts University. Classics in Google Books. David Mimno and David Blei, Princeton University. The Open Encyclopedia of Classical Sites. Alfonso Moreno, Magdalen College, University of Oxford. Bibliotheca Academica Translationum: link to Google Books. Timothy R. Tangherlini, University of California-Los Angeles, Peter Leonard, University of Washington. Northern Insights: Tools & Techniques for Automated Literary Analysis, Based on the Scandinavian Corpus in Google Books.
