Divergent Discourses Corpus Statistic Reports Tool

Comprehensive analysis tools for the Divergent Discourses Tibetan Newspaper Corpus (1950-1965). The scripts go through the corpus image files which are structured to encode metadata: The tools expect files to follow this pattern: XXX_YYYY_MM_DD_ppp_LL_abcd.ext Where: XXX: 3-letter newspaper code (e.g., TID, QTN, TIM) YYYY_MM_DD: Publication date ppp: Page number (3 digits with leading zeros) LL: 2-letter library code abcd: Optional shelfmark .ext: File extension (.jpg, .png, .tif, .pdf) Example: TID_1964_01_09_001_SB_Zsn128162MR.jpg With this information, the scripts collect statistical data for the corpus, e.g., newspaper issues per year, and output the information organised in a set of csv, TXT, and XLS files. The dd_corpus_reports folder contains all output files for the Divergent Discourses Corpus as of February 16, 2026 Full Changelog: https://github.com/Divergent-Discourses/DDC_CorpusStatistics/commits/v1
