The U.S. Library of Congress Innovator in Residence program is a competitive
residency for outside researchers or practitioners to creatively use the
Library’s digital collections. The first Innovator was data artist Jer Thorp and
the current cohort includes Ben Lee
(https://labs.loc.gov/experiments/newspaper-navigator/) and Brian Foo
(https://labs.loc.gov/experiments/citizen-dj/) With Brian and Ben’s projects
underway, the LoC is excited to accept applications for the next round of
projects. Do you have a unique vision for using the collections? Are you
passionate about connecting the American public with history? Apply at
