How do I get my data out?

(from the room) How do I export data from OpenRefine?

Any particular use cases (i.e. data formats, schema, etc.) you'd like to hear more about? I can see what I can offer from my own experience.

The export options are accessed through the 'Export' button at the top right of the OpenRefine interface

The basic export formats supported include HTML, Excel and comma- and tab-separated value (csv and tsv). However, there is a huge amount of flexibility offered by the 'Templating' option in the export menu. You can also write a custom export, selecting to export specific fields, adding a header or footer and specifying the exact format.

To see an example of creating a more complex export format, see this blog post http://www.utsc.utoronto.ca/digitalscholarship/content/blogs/converting-spreadsheets-modsxml-using-open-refine
