Summary/Abstract: To sketch a profile of Polish digital humanists, Maryl draws on the results of a European survey on scholarly practices and digital needs in the arts and humanities. This survey was conducted in 2014 and 2015 by the Digital Methods and Practices Observatory (DiMPO), a working group of the European consortium DARIAH. The results are analysed in the context of the concept of waves of digital humanities: the first wave is simple digitization, the second entails the use of advanced digital methods, the third harnesses critical reflection on the epistemology of digital instruments. Maryl proposes to classify digital humanists by placing them on different points on a spectrum, from those using basic tools to the most advanced users.
