Library Carpentry: Harvesting Twitter Data with Twarc

This event is a hybrid, two-day, example-driven workshop on May 26 and 27, 2022 for using twarc to collect Twitter data through the Twitter API.  Both synchronous remote and in-person attendance will be supported, and there will be two types of tickets (in-person, remote) for you to choose from.  Twarc is a Python tool that comes along with 47 small python utilities for harvesting and working with data from the Twitter public API.  This workshop will navigate you through using utilities provided by twarc.  We will also discuss the ethics around using Twitter data.
