The National Archives, Jisc and the Programming Historian (a publisher of multilingual tutorials that support humanists in learning digital tools and methods) have formed a partnership that aims to publish a series of articles to aid humanities researchers wishing to use digital tools and methods in their analysis of large-scale digital collections.
A call for papers https://programminghistorian.org/posts/cfp-jisc-ph is currently open, inviting prospective authors to submit proposals for article-length tutorials on the computational analysis of large-scale digital collections. Register for this online event, and learn more about the Programming Historian in general, and about the call for papers in particular. There will be an opportunity to ask questions about the call in the second part of the event.
The event is free, but requires registration https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/author-information-event-computational-analys... .
