Create your workset

This section shows you how to  create a custom workset, for the volume(s) contained in which you will eventually download the corresponding advanced and basic EF data files. Your workset can contain as many volumes as you wish. However, the example workset for this section will consist, for the sake of simplicity, of a single volume from the HathiTrust Digital Library's public domain collection: a published-in-1920 edition of the book of poems titled Buch der Lieder by the German poet Heinrich Heine. Then we show you how you can download the EF data files corresponding to this workset. (One of the use cases for the EF approach to non-consumptive text analysis that we have posted also uses this particular book by Heine to make its point.)
