The <a href=\"https:\/\/cds.lib.brown.edu\/workshops\">Center for Digital Scholarship<\/a> at Brown University Library is delighted to offer our Spring 2026 workshop series, \u201cBuilding Your Digital Humanities Toolkit,\u201d to help students build their skills and theoretical knowledge in the field. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lunch will be provided on a first-come, first-serve basis for all workshops that are held during the noon lunch hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One helpful way we have found to get started in the field is by focusing on specific skills and theoretical discussions and gradually expanding your toolkit. The first workshop will be on how to build helpful strategies to build your own knowledge in the field. CDS will offer workshops in-person at the Rockefeller Library nearly every week through March to focus on specific skills and knowledge. (Please note that you need to register for each workshop separately).
