Do you want to learn how to gather digital text data on a larger scale from e.g. repositories, newspapers or social media? This workshop will introduce you to the practices of web scraping along with some hands-on examples. We will depart from both tools like webscraper.io (for scraping basic web pages) and Python libraries. No previous knowledge is required.
