DASH is the central, open-access institutional repository of research by members of the Harvard community. Harvard Library Open Scholarship and Research Data Services (OSRDS) operates DASH to provide the broadest possible access to Harvard's scholarship. This repository hosts a wide range of Harvard-affiliated scholarly works, including pre- and post-refereed journal articles, conference proceedings, theses and dissertations, working papers, and reports.

The digital landscape of Chinese studies has witnessed a remarkable surge in recent decades, with a multitude of resources becoming available. However, many of these valuable resources, particularly those developed by individual scholars, remain relatively unknown to the broader research community. Recognizing the need for centralized access and discovery, the Digital China Initiative proposes the development of a RAG-based recommendation chatbot for digital resources of Chinese studies.

Digital China Worldwide aims to serve as a vital platform, catering to the needs of scholars, researchers, and students by offering a centralized repository of diverse digital resources. The directory will encompass a wide range of valuable resources related to Chinese studies, from databases and datasets to online archives, digitalized academic journals and research papers, and multimedia materials.

Harvard WorldMap began in 2008 with the aim of lowering barriers for scholars to create, analyze, and share geospatial information. To continue the legacy and further expand opportunities for collaboration, the project has been moved to ArcGIS Online.
