OpenRefine Basics for Research in the Humanities and Social Science

Feeling overwhelmed by scattered data? Have notes full of data points but unsure where to begin organizing them? Join ASU Library’s Researcher Support team for a webinar on using OpenRefine, a free, open-source tool, to transform datasets.

This session will introduce the basics of OpenRefine, including how to:

• Prepare datasets for upload.
• Organize and clean both numerical and text-based data.
• Arrange text within cells and columns.
• Convert spreadsheets into new formats.

The webinar is open to all disciplines but will be especially useful for participants in the humanities and social sciences.
