PTI’s commitment to initiatives that help researchers turn information into knowledge runs the gamut from literature to lifesaving. We continue to create and enhance innovative mechanisms for effectively interacting with massive amounts of data—and for ensuring its security.
Expanding innovations in data for research
HathiTrust Research Center
Through initiatives such as the HathiTrust Research Center (HTRC), Indiana University continues to help researchers turn information into knowledge. The HTRC develops cutting-edge software tools and cyberinfrastructure that enables scholars to access the growing digital record of human knowledge and to perform research using data from the HathiTrust Digital Library.

Terracotta
Through projects such as Terracotta, the eLearning Research and Practice Lab leads advances in our understanding of student learning, both by conducting original research with the rich data produced as students progress through online coursework, and by providing a bridge enabling Indiana University faculty to responsibly access these data sources.
