Day One outcomes: Decided on NoSQL structure for data Began coding in order to create Mongo database: complete for now one passage, now needs to be looped

Goals for Day Two: Complete MongoDB for loading set Decide how to incorporate metadata into MongoDB structure Create ECCO Corpus that includes the tails of each volume Run script to create MongoDB from whole ECCO dataset Write query script for MongoDB, including metadata

Day Two outcomes:

Github Contents Search engine background reading Harvard references

Main Goals Develop real-time search Rechunk data, including tails

Other goals / instructions (in order of priority)

Currently, our prototype website will be used to search a database of English-language 18th-Century texts Future Add the ability to search other, much larger databases (think HathiTrust, Google Books, etc.) Extend user base to researchers across the humanities Let your imagination run wild, when you think about how to brand future iterations of this platform!
