Bamboo: Envisioning Cyberinfrastructure for the Arts and Humanities

Bamboo is a multi-institutional, interdisciplinary, and interorganizational effort supported by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation that brings together arts and humanities researchers, computer and information scientists, librarians, campus information technologists, and other interested groups to tackle the question, How can we enhance arts and humanities research through the development of shared technology services? We will present the 18-month planning process, discuss the evolving direction of the project, and share what we've learned to date.
