The HathiTrust Digital Library is the world’s largest, holding nearly 17.5 million digitized volumes from research libraries around the world. The HathiTrust Research Center, co-located here at UIUC and at Indiana U, is a gateway to an enormous, near-universal library. We will introduce text and data mining tools, which allow researchers to computationally analyze the millions of volumes of text held in the HathiTrust Digital Library.

This workshop will be held online via Zoom. A link will be sent with registration confirmation and with reminder one hour before workshop.
