Humanities Commons
Humanities Commons is an open-source, open-access network serving scholars and practitioners across humanities disciplines and around the world. More than 23,000 registered users have created profiles and are collaborating and sharing their work with their colleagues and with the public. Our users are faculty members, graduate students, librarians, teachers, writers, researchers, and more. Humanities Commons gives all of them the means to help their work change the world.
Your Support Will Make a Big Difference
Contributions to this campaign will help Humanities Commons reach more scholars and scholarly organizations around the world, strengthening their collaborations and enabling them to make more of their work public. Expanding the network will also make it possible for teachers and students everywhere to find and use cutting-edge research in the humanities.
Project Budget
Humanities Commons is engaged in a multi-year $1.5 million fundraising campaign, which will allow us to support the network and its team for seven years. Every $3 we raise will release a fourth dollar from the NEH’s Infrastructure and Capacity Building Challenge grant, allowing us to build a total fund of $2 million.
As part of that larger campaign, we hope to raise $5,000 in 2020 from members of the Commons community and supporters of MSU. Your contribution will help us demonstrate the community’s support for making research and teaching across the humanities more open and more publicly accessible.
