Based around the Library Carpentry tools, this workshop introduces the OpenRefine tool for cleaning and manipulating humanities data.

Based around the Library Carpentry tools, this workshop introduces the OpenRefine tool for cleaning and manipulating humanities data. We will look at how OpenRefine is different to more standard spreadsheet approaches, and will look at some of the tools that allow you to standardise and work with narrative, unstructured or messy data. We will also look at working with library and archive catalogue records with sample data from Exeter’s Special Collections.Due to high demand, these workshops are currently limited to staff and students from University of Exeter and Southwest DTP institutions. If you do not fall into those categories but are interested in attending, please get in touch with the DH team and we can discuss training possibilities.Places are very limited for this event, so if you find you are unable to attend, please let us know at digitalhumanities@exeter.ac.uk.Location: online only (this may be subject to change if in-person attendance becomes possible)Organizer: <a href="https://humanities.exeter.ac.uk/digital-lab/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">University of Exeter Digital Humanities Lab</a>Contact: digitalhumanities@exeter.ac.uk
