CETH Workshop Series: Electronic Text Technology in the Humanities 
 
The Center for Electronic Texts in the Humanities (CETH) is organizing a 
series of three one-day workshops designed to introduce the basics of 
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 
rapidly expanding body of electronic resources available for humanities 
scholarship.  Basic knowledge of word processing and familiarity with the 
Internet are assumed.
