No More Silence Workshop

An introduction to the data produced by the No More Silence project and an in-depth exercise in performing beginning text-analysis on that data using computer code written in the programming language Python. (The workshop also began with an introduction – for absolute beginners – to general computer programming using Python). Originally held August 12-14, 2020.

Our Collections Our Data Workshop

An introduction — for absolute beginners — to computer programming for the use of manipulating, managing, and providing access to digital cultural heritage materials, especially in the area of community LGBTQIA archives and historical collections.
