This event has been organised by the Davy Notebooks Project, https://wp.lancs.ac.uk/davynotebooks, it is promoted here as it is likely to be of interest to digital humanities scholars across the N8 Research Partnership.

Overview

Over the course of the workshop, participants will have the opportunity to discuss using the Zooniverse Project Builder with Dr Samantha Blickhan (Zooniverse Co-Director and Humanities Lead, based at the Adler Planetarium, Chicago) and other members of the Davy Notebooks Project team (including Professors Sharon Ruston and Frank James). There'll be several interactive sessions over the course of the day, and there'll be plenty of time for Q&A and discussion.

This is an excellent opportunity to learn more about using the Zooniverse Project Builder – the essential tool that Zooniverse project owners use to make their project data available to volunteers – and there'll be a specific focus on recent technical developments in the project building process; no prior experience of using Zooniverse or advance preparation is necessary.

The workshop (11am-5pm) will take place in the Digital Scholarship Lab of the Library, Bailrigg campus, Lancaster University, and lunch will be provided.
