Summary
The Digital CoLab supports digital humanities research. We meet researchers individually, host workshops and instruct classes. We can help with tasks like building digital maps and exhibits, computationally analyzing texts, troubleshooting Python and R code and more.

- Privacy
- Computational text analysis (words are data, too!)
- Network analysis
- Database design and maintenance
- Finding or preparing data with Optical Character Recognition (OCR), APIs, webscraping or other methods.
- Troubleshooting or remixing Python or R code for any of the above tasks.
