The Adams Lecture

'International Communities of Collaboration: the George Eliot Archive'

Dr. Beverley Park Rilett, Associate Professor at Auburn University in Alabama, USA, and Vice-President of the GEF, will provide an overview of a growing trove of more than 5,000 documents, images, and born-digital subprojects collected and/or created by the George Eliot Archive and its sister-sites, the George Eliot Review Online journal collection and the George Eliot Scholars digital commons. These public humanities projects provide resources not only for academic researchers but for everyone curious about George Eliot. Join us as we review and celebrate the projects’ accomplishments over the first five years and plans for the decade ahead.
