PDA: Library Carpentry Session 4 - The Unix Shell

SCELC partners with peer library consortia around the country to form the Professional Development Alliance (PDA)! The PDA is dedicated to sharing our professional development opportunities with other alliance members. This new initiative multiplies the number and variety of online professional development opportunities available to the member libraries of each participating consortium. PDA webinars are freely available to librarians and staff at all SCELC Member and Affiliate Institutions.

Session Details:

The Unix shell (or simply the shell) is a command line interface that allows you to interact with your computer using typed text commands. This workshop introduces you to how you can use the shell to automate tasks, and to manipulate, count, and mine data.
