The platform follows three main steps for helping you work with digitised textual data: Build, Clean, and Analyze. You can use the vast range of data available in Gale Primary Sources or upload your own documents. An integrated Learning Center provides instructional tutorial videos and explanations throughout, supporting newcomers and experienced users alike.
