Content Description

This collection contains a .txt file of IDs for around 20,000 tweet ids related to Initiative 77 and a .csv file of the tweets themselves (embargoed indefinitely for in-house use only). The tweets referenced were collected between June 19, 2018 and January 1, 2020 from the Twitter API using Social Feed Manager. They were located via hashtag search; tweets collected therefore pre-date the date and time of the initial query. The unaltered tweet collection can be viewed by on-site researchers only; to view from home, download the text file, and open it in Hydrator.

Distribution of complete tweet datasets is prohibited by Twitter's terms of service. This dataset, however, was generated when the referenced tweets were "dehydrated," a process which extracts only tweet IDs, which can be freely distributed. "Rehydrated" tweet datasets can be used by remote researchers, but may not be distributed. D.C. Public Library accepts no responsibility for the distribution of rehydrated datasets.
