The Digital Humanities & Video Game Studies Lab (located in Mantor Library’s Mezzanine) at the University of Maine at Farmington was launched in August 2018 to provide hands-on support for the integration of digital platforms into university curricula. At this time, we offer walk-in hours to assist students and faculty with free platforms: ArcGIS StoryMaps, Audacity, Canva, DaVinci Resolve, and WordPress. We also have high-powered computers, podcasting equipment, video production equipment, and Nintendo Switches available for student use.

Our hours for Spring 2023 are: Monday, 9-2; Tuesday, 8-11 and 12-6; Wednesday, 11-6; Thursday, 12-4; and Friday, 9-4.

If you would like to schedule an instructional session or discuss another digital tool for use in your courses or projects, email stephen.grandchamp@maine.edu.
