The HathiTrust Research Center offers training to develop a community of users, teachers, and supporters of computational text analysis with HathiTrust data.
HTRC has developed a virtual training program that it is offering during the COVID-19 pandemic. The virtual workshops translate the previous in-person workshops into an online environment. The workshop series is broken into four parts, and the series will be offered twice in spring 2021:
Introduction to HTRC for text and data mining
HTRC Extracted Features dataset
HTRC Data Capsules environment
Supporting text and data mining from the library
Upcoming workshops
In spring 2021, affiliates of HathiTrust member institutions are invited to register to attend workshops in one of the two series.
Series 1: 2/12, 2/19, 2/26, 3/5 all 12-2 p.m. E.T. - Full
Series 2: 4/2, 4/9, 4/16, 4/23 all 12-2 p.m. E.T. - Full
Please only register to participate in one of the series. Attendees cannot mix-and-match between the series. Due to space constraints, registration is limited to those from HathiTrust member institutions. We will be unable to accommodate registrants from other organizations.
HTRC Trainers Community
Librarians who attend all four days of a virtual series, or who attended both days of our in-person training, are invited to join the HTRC Trainers Community. The community is composed of librarians from HathiTrust member organizations who are interested in teaching with and about HTRC tools and services. Learn more about the community.
