Abstract
In this chapter, we explore the affordances and benefits of teaching foundational text and data mining (TDM) skills to library staff and library school students using HathiTrust Digital Library (HTDL) and the associated HathiTrust Research Center (HTRC).1 HTDL provides access to more than 18 million volumes sourced from academic and public libraries in order to advance the goals of scholars and researchers, independent from corporate interest.2 HTDL represents an enormous source of texts familiar and unfamiliar to potential workshop audiences.
