Roshan Institute for Persian Studies at the University of Maryland, College Park has embarked on an ambitious Persian digital humanities initiative, the Roshan Initiative in Persian Digital Humanities at the University of Maryland (PersDig@UMD). It is a collaborative effort involving Roshan Institute for Persian Studies, Maryland Institute for Technology in the Humanities (MITH), UMD libraries, and Maryland Language Science Center (MLSC). We currently are developing six projects: the DocuNow Persian Social Media Archive, Persian Digital Library (PDL), Persian Manuscript Optimization Project, Persian E-Book Database, Roshan Institute Open-Access E-Books and Lalehzar Street Digital Archive.
