working with electronic texts in research and teaching in the
humanities. Each workshop will be self-contained, but the series as a
whole will provide a good overview of the essential tools, techniques and
resources for faculty, graduate students and librarians. The CETH
Workshop Series is designed to assist in the use and management of the
