Classification data from all three projects was analyzed as a part of Engaging Crowds and this analysis is described in the project's final report, which will be available on the Towards a National Collection website.

This page provides access to the data used for the analysis, comprising descriptions of the classifications made by the volunteers who contributed to all three projects. We are hugely grateful to everyone who contributed.
