Hello all,
I wanted to call your attention to a series of text data mining workshops within the HathiTrust corpora on June 3rd at MIT.
HathiTrust is a collaboration between many academic and research organizations that provides access to millions of digitized texts from libraries all over the world. The
HathiTrust Research Center provides tools that allow computational access to this collection while keeping within current copyright law. These workshops will introduce participants to both the set-up for and the
process to computationally access and analyze collections available through the HathiTrust.
There’s detailed information on the
news blog, along with links to *register*. All workshops will be led by Eleanor Koehl, Digital Scholarship Librarian for the HathiTrust Research Center. If you’re familiar (or not) with HathiTrust, text mining, or computational access to collections,
building APIs, API architecture these workshops could be useful. And… there shall be coffee!
Location, Building 2, Room 105:
