Abstract

Gale Digital Scholar Lab offers a straightforward entry point into Digital Humanities for new researchers and experienced scholars. The Lab provides access to large data sets that can be easily mined and exported for use in custom applications and open-source analytical tools. With the Lab, Gale has created a research platform to help bridge the gap that often exists between primary sources that are available in the library and the research needs and workflows of faculty and students. As an extension of a Library’s primary source collections, the Lab will encourage the use of archival holdings to support broader research needs.
