Working with a set of articles, letters, books, or social media posts? Whether you’re working with a large or small collection of texts, computational text analysis can help you with your research process. In this workshop, we will explore using various Python libraries, such as NLTK and spaCy, to conduct various text analysis approaches such as finding word frequencies, word co-occurrence, topic modeling, sentiment analysis, and more. By the end of the workshop, attendees will have knowledge on how to begin their text analysis project using Python. Attendees should already have experience with Python.

This workshop is offered by University Libraries and will be led by librarians Rolando Rodriguez and Lorin Bruckner
