About this Event

Do you have a research dataset in need of review and cleaning? OpenRefine, an open-source software for data cleanup and transformation, can help you interpret and remediate tabular data, including spreadsheet data.

During this workshop, explore how OpenRefine can help maximize the usefulness of your data and learn general organizational tricks to optimize the responsiveness of your dataset.

The workshop will be divided into two sections: the first, a discussion of how OpenRefine can solve your data cleaning needs, and the second, a Q&A session focused on troubleshooting issues and the more advanced and specific functions of OpenRefine.

Daniel Peart, data services librarian, and Michael Stewart, metadata librarian, will lead the workshop.

This virtual workshop is open to the public. It is co-sponsored by the Graduate College.

Registration is required. Once registered, you will receive an email with details on how to join the workshop via Zoom. The first section of the workshop will be recorded.
