Tuesday Mar 21: What is Data in the Humanities?
What does "data" mean for the humanities? Can a book be data? Or a painting? Let's have a conversation about humanities data, what you can use it for, and where to find it.
Tuesday Mar 28: Creating Data Visualizations
You have data, now what? This workshop will show you how to make data visualizations, like charts and graphs, to present your research.
Every Tuesday between April 4-May 9 from 1-2:30pm the Library will be hosting the Digital Scholarship Lab in E1.
Come with either your own digital project to work in or take part in humanities data activities with the group. The Digital Humanities Librarian will be available to help support and troubleshoot any projects you are working on for your classes. If you don’t have a class project there will be humanities data activities around text as data, image data, and spatial data.
