centerNet defines itself as an "International Network of Digital Humanities Centers." It has added over 200 members from about 100 centers in 19 countries since its foundation in 2007. Basically, they're attempting to centralize all of Digital Humanities into a single vast network. They aim to be inclusive and avoid defining digital humanities concretely. Instead, they only suggest that "a "center" should be larger than a single project, and it should have some history or promise of persistence." The projects can be found by a keyword search, by region, or by clicking on an interactive GoogleMap. The network isn't as flooded as you think; only 200 entries exist on the site as of today, but each one is of very high quality.

OKC is a collaborative effort to "make the record of human knowledge" inclusive. They plan to do this by digitizing printed or physical artifacts in libraries and creating an online collection. It talks about the issues libraries face, such as funding for digitization, and attempt to rectify the issues with the libraries. This page also includes projects OKC suports and is contributing to, such as the Wikipedia Gateway Project. It promotes collaboration between libraries and cultural centers and advocates for the smaller 'non-commercial players.' Their greatest interest concerning technology, is to attempt to advance and integrate existing technical architecture.
