Hi everyone!

If you’re thinking of using web scraping for your project, this workshop may be for you. In this beginner workshop, we will be discussing some of the common practices and discuss the differences between web scraping and using an API. We will then consider what might be the best strategy depending on the project and explore some tools that we can use. Some familiarity of HTML is encouraged!

Zoom link will be provided to registered participants. Register here!
