This workshop will take the form of informal "office hours" available in conjunction with a pre-recorded version of the workshop content available as multiple videos. The videos introduce methods and tools for processing text and transforming it into data that can be analyzed. Participants will be introduced to the spacy Python library and basic methods of quantitative textual analysis. It will be helpful to have had prior exposure to Python, such as through the "Introduction to Python" workshop or Python Camp. No installation of Python is needed.
