In this presentation, we will share our experiences developing the Digital Scholarship Center (DSC) at Rowan University. We will discuss guiding principles, the focus on creativity and collaboration, challenges, strengths, and successes, and creative solutions for staffing and project development. We will also share our experiences in building a vibrant workshop program, partnering with faculty, departments, and a student entrepreneurial group. In addition, we will discuss the projects developed by our DSC, which includes the Glassboro Summit Collection and our Rowan Public Art project. The session will provide insight on challenges and creative solutions for developing a DSC, managing projects, collaborating, and building a workshop program.
