The #glamworkbench has a brand new section for the Public Record Office Victoria! The first notebook shows you how to use PROV's collection API. You can run it live on Jupyter Lite as well as Binder. https://glam-workbench.net/prov/ #glam #archives #histodons #digitalhumanities

Pushed a fix to my custom Datasette-Lite repo so that the full-text indexing handles multiple columns properly. If you want to use it to share your CSVs as searchable databases, you can construct the necessary url with this form in the #glamworkbench: https://glam-workbench.net/glam-tools/datasette/

I've added another 15 entries to my list of publications that mention the #glamworkbench or one of its related tools (such as the #trove Newspaper Harvester). That makes an even 100 references from around the world. https://glam-workbench.net/citations/ #glam #collectionsasdata #researchimpact

I'd sort of like to nominate the #glamworkbench in the Eureka Prize's research software category. It wouldn't win against all the science-y, institutionally-supported things, and it's a lot of work to submit, so not sure it's worth the effort just to fly the flag for #glam, HASS, and the work […]

This has taken me far too long (tired, distracted brain), but I think it's just about ready for the #glamworkbench...

#glamworkbench update! Saving #trove's digitised periodicals as PDFs: https://updates.timsherratt.org/2024/09/19/saving-troves-digitised.html #glam #histodons #digitalhumanities

Added a new banner to the #glamworkbench... 😞

I was asked recently for help searching a community newsletter that had been uploaded to #trove through the National eDeposit service (NED). That led me down a bit of a rabbit hole... I've now added a notebook to the #glamworkbench that walks through the process of extracting metadata and text […]

The work of #maintenance is never done – some details of last week's updates to the #trove newspapers section of the #glamworkbench: https://updates.timsherratt.org/2024/09/23/major-update-for.html The Trove newspapers section includes 23 Jupyter notebooks and 6 datasets. #glam #histodons […]

I thought I'd pull together a little list of all the datasets I've created over the years that capture data about the history of online GLAM collections (specifically Trove and RecordSearch). They're scattered a bit between the #glamworkbench, GitHub, and Zenodo, so I thought it's be useful to […]

Ok, so I've updated all the notebooks in the Trove newspapers section of the #glamworkbench to make sure they work with v3 of the Trove API. They're not in the repository yet – still have to update all the metadata & generate RO-Crate files for nbs and data.

I've also created a new #glamworkbench section for #trove NED stuff. It's pretty much done, but neither MyBinder or ARDC Binder are working at the moment, so I can't fully test things...

Tonight I'm having a chat about data labs & my work on the #glamworkbench with folks from the impressive Impresso project: https://www.impresso-project.ch/

It took a week, but the #trove newspapers section of the #glamworkbench is now fully updated. That's 25 notebooks and 6 datasets. https://glam-workbench.net/trove-newspapers/

For those who are interested (probably nobody), as well as updating the code to work with v3 of the Trove API, I pulled […]
