HathiTrust Research Center (HTRC) is pleased to announce three virtual
workshops taking place this spring. Each event will be a standalone workshop
and no prior experience or attendance at other events is required. Similarly,
though a familiarity with text and data mining and Python programming will be
useful, no prior HTRC or programming experience is needed. HTRC workshops are
open to all—no need to be affiliated with a HathiTrust member institution. The
three workshops will be delivered over the course of the spring, each focused
on individual services from HTRC:
* March 17, 1:00 Central / 2:00 Eastern - Intro to HathiTrust and HTRC:
Attendees of this workshop will be introduced to the HathiTrust and HathiTrust
Digital Library as well as the HTRC and its data and analytical tools,
including hands-on practice with HTRC Analytics.

Each workshop has a duration of 2 hours, will be held live on Zoom, and
workshop materials will be shared with registrants as the workshops approach.
