Advice on your thesis

Your thesis contains a digital component. Whether you make use of digitised material, want to carry out text mining analyses or need to save a dataset,with our expertise we like to offer help and advice on the research stage of your thesis.

Digital corpora

If you are looking for digitised sources the University Library is a good place to start. We have licences on a large number of e-books and digital text corpora, but also offer access to platforms for DH research with which these (and other) digital text corpora can be researched. This also applies to a broad range of (audio)visual corpora.

An overview of the digital corpora (textual and audio visual) that can be used in DH research, please go to the search systems Humanities. Filter on the tag 'textmining' to find the databases that are available for textmining. To find audiovisual databases you filter on the kind of database and select 'audiovisual'.
