Dr. John Woitkowitz

I am Head of the Stabi Lab at the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin. My work focuses on connecting research with digital cultural heritage to create new ways of understanding the past.

I am also Digital Editor at the New England Journal of History, where I develop digital collections. Find a recent project here.

Before joining the Staatsbibliothek, I researched and taught nineteenth and twentieth-century histories of diplomacy and knowledge transfer with a special focus on the polar regions at universities in Canada, the United States and England.

I earned a PhD in History from the University of Calgary in 2018.
