A new addiction with @Tropy -- annotation of the screenshots I take at the presentations I attend. I normally lose the screenshots in the desktop after a while, but now I have my desktop defined as the 'watch folder' of my new Desktop Tropy project #housekeeping 🤓

My latest secret weapon for organizing my book's archival research: Tropy! This tool helps me easily categorize, tag, and date all the historical gems I've collected in the archives -- goodbye to chaos and hello to organized research!

Organizing your research can be spooky, but it doesn't have to be scary! IMG_666? Nevermore! Tropy helps you describe and annotate those mysterious photos you took in the archive Finally--did you know that Tropy has a Halloween "Easter egg"? Check your sublists...if you dare!!!

That's exciting! If like @DebsEThorpe you're interested in organising a Tropy workshop at your institution, leave a message to our Outreach team (@alucchesi or @mcrae) 👩🏻‍💻👨🏻‍💻 forums.tropy.org/t/tropy-wor…
In November, we at UCC will have a train-the-trainer session on @tropy with Dr Anita Lucchesi (@alucchesi) I'm excited to say it's fully booked already! People are clearly excited about this open-source tool that allows you to organize and describe digitised archival material💪

About 10 mins in @RAKarl shows how to use the CSV export plugin, a way to not just export data but also (as he shows) to manage research projects. This is just one of many applications of several of Tropy's plugins, available via Github (2/3) youtube.com/watch?v=35mC1u_O…

A major addition since this demo was made: Tropy now allows users to choose a Standard or Advanced Project type. Learn about the difference and decide which type is right for your project here (3/3): tropy.org/blog/new-project-t… Happy researching!
