Using HathiTrust Texts for Literary Research Ted Underwood is converting 500,000 eighteenth- and nineteenth- century volumes downloaded from HathiTrust into a normalized collection that can be used for literary-historical research. He will briefly describe a workflow he and Mike Black have developed for normalizing the texts, and will encourage discussion about a range of other practical problems that confront researchers: assessing OCR quality, dividing texts into workparts, categorizing texts by genre, and identifying duplicate volumes, for instance. |
