Jacob Heil
Most recently I was the Mellon Digital Scholar for The Five Colleges of Ohio, working under the auspices of the Digital Scholarship: Projects & Pedagogy grant, which was generously funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. As the Ohio Five Digital Scholar, I worked with librarians and faculty across the five colleges to help small, often interdepartmental teams to imagine, plan, and develop digital pedagogical projects. Before joining the Ohio Five I was a book historian and project manager on the Early Modern OCR Project (eMOP), a Mellon-funded initiative centered at my alma mater, Texas A&M University.
