\begin{quote} close reading will not do it . . . . At bottom, it’s a theological exercise – very solemn treatment of very few texts taken very seriously – whereas what we really need is a little pact with the devil: we know how to read texts, now let’s learn how not to read them. Distant reading: where distance . . . is a condition of knowledge: it allows you to focus on units that are much smaller or much larger than the text: devices, themes, tropes – or genres and systems. And if, between the very small and the very large, the text itself disappears, well, it is one of those cases when one can justifiably say, less is more.   \end{quote} \cite{Moretti_2000}  Much like the Moretti definition, the HTRC has become a pubisher distant in some ways from the creator as well as from any standardized concept of publisher. Yet, the data sets that are published under the rubric of the HTRC are freeing information from the constraints of copyright  that in this context, {Distant Publishing} {distant publishing}  could be defined as \begin{quote}  Publication of a non-consumptive data set outside of any standardized publishing construct, removed from the original creator, \\  openly available to the community of scholars for replication and available for re-use in support of the advancement of knowledge. \\
