India handbook digitization project: collect, digitize, then link across censuses
paulnovosad · x · 2026-11-09
A fragment of Paul Novosad's thread: the District Census Handbooks project is still at step 1 — collecting all handbooks and making them public. Step 2 is categorizing and digitizing their content; step 3 is linking records across censuses. All progress will be public, so anyone can pull and work with the team's latest outputs at any time.
