SUMMARY:Streamline Your Research Materials Photos with Tropy
DESCRIPTION:Date: January 27 2026 \n\n\n\nYou’ve been there–getting home from an incredible research trip to an archive\, maps collection\, or gallery only to face down thousands of photos all labelled “IMG50293.png.” Join Research Data Management Specialist Danica Evering and Data Analysis and Visualization Librarian Subhanya Sivajothy for an overview of Tropy: a free and open-source solution to explore and manage research photos. In this webinar\, you will learn how to use Tropy to zoom into details\, tag and organize content with metadata\, and begin uncovering patterns across your sources. We will also explore how Tropy connects with Zotero for reference management and Omeka for building digital exhibits\, offering a full workflow from research to public presentation. \n\n\n\nIn this hands-on workshop\, participants will learn to: \n\n\n\n\nUse Tropy to organize\, annotate\, analyze and manage research materials image collections.\n\n\n\nSelect appropriate metadata and implement documentation and tagging systems.\n\n\n\nIntegrate Tropy with Zotero and Omeka to cite archival sources and enhance the impact of your research and digital exhibitions.\n\n\n\n\nNo prior knowledge of the software will be required but please come with a version of the software downloaded for the demo! We’ll be doing some hands-on experimentation with the software to get you familiar with these tools. \n\n\n\nDetails: Any preparatory work for the session can be found on its information page. This virtual workshop will be recorded and shared on the same page\, and discoverable via the Sherman Centre’s Online Learning Catalogue. \n\n\n\nFacilitator Bio:  \n\n\n\nDanica Evering holds broad experience with research support\, education\, project management\, advocacy\, and knowledge translation; with fluency in social practice art\, healthcare\, community research\, data\, and systems development. Danica supports students\, postdocs\, faculty\, and staff with RDM through the data lifecycle—Data Management Plans\, storage and backup\, data security\, data sharing. With an MA in Media Studies from Concordia\, they are interested in fostering RDM within curious scholars and disciplines. \n\n\n\nSubhanya Sivajothy (she/her) brings a background of research in data justice\, science and technology studies\, and environmental humanities. She is currently thinking through participatory data design which allow for visualizations that are empowering for the end user. \n\n\n\nCertificate Eligibility: This workshop is eligible for the Sherman Centre’s certificate program. For more information\, visit scds.ca/certificate-program. It is also eligible for the Canadian Certificate for Digital Humanities. To learn more\, visit ccdhhn.ca or contact scds@mcmaster.ca. \n\n\n\nCredit Eligibility: This workshop counts toward credit for students in the Faculty of Science who are enrolled in SCIENCE 2SF1: Digital Skills Workshop. For any questions\, please contact oursci@mcmaster.ca.

SUMMARY:GitHub for Word Geeks Intro
DESCRIPTION:Reg Beatty and Alex Pospisil \n\n\n\nGitHub is a platform designed to help software developers manage large collaborative projects. Essentially\, it is a repository for different files\, but it has a unique way of documenting the history of a project including any commentary\, debate\, and edits to those files. It also features the ability to create ‘branches’ where experiments and alternate paths can be explored. But despite its rather technical origins it can easily be appropriated for a variety of projects. \n\n\n\nJoin Reg and Alex as they explain GitHub’s whys and wherefores and how they are using it to work on collaborative and creative writing. \n\n\n\nThere will also be a 2-hour Hybrid Workshop on Friday January 30 (see the next listing) for those who would like a hands-on experience.
