  Since 2013 researchers at University College Dublin in the Insight Centre for
Data Analytics have been involved in a significant research programme in
digital journalism, specifically targeting tools and social media guidelines to
support the work of journalists. Most of this programme was undertaken in
collaboration with The Irish Times. This collaboration involved identifying key
problems currently faced by digital journalists, developing tools as solutions
to these problems, and then iteratively co-designing these tools with feedback
from journalists. This paper reports on our experiences and learnings from this
research programme, with a view to informing similar efforts in the future.
