[Purpose/significance] Digital Humanities is an emerging field of service for the library. This paper provides a useful reference for the development and improvement of library supporting services for digital humanities in China. [Method/process] In order to explore the foreign research trends of library supporting development of digital humanities, this paper elaborates the relationship between digital humanities and library, and then analyses the situation of library supporting development of digital humanities abroad, using the methods of literature research, content analysis and case interpretation. [Result/conclusion] The service items provided for digital humanities by library include resource navigation, tool application, project maintenance, digital preservation, metadata management, copyright guidance, academic evaluation, and digital publishing. The practical approaches for library include developing training plan, optimizing curriculum design, building research space, and carrying out collaboration. In order to support digital humanities research more efficiently, libraries should provide some promising measures for their librarians, including sufficient training opportunities, reasonable authority and incentive.
