\section{HTRC and Non-Consumptive Research}  In enabling analysis of the HTDL corpus, the HTRC has been forced to define and work within the concept of \textit{non-consumptive} computational access in order to support the fair-use of the collection within the context of our text mining tools. This concept was first developed from some key concepts within the Google Books Settelement Agreement that was a part of the Authors \textit{Authors  Guild et al. v. Google Inc Inc}  case, but has been further refined in the course of the development of the HTRC Data Capsule \cite{Zeng_2014} for secure data analysis and the development of our the  workset ontologies ontology  \cite{Jett_2016}. Currently the HTRC defines our process for non-consumptive use of the HTDL corpus as: research in which computational analysis is performed on one or more books, but not research in which a researcher reads or displays.” Operationally, the HTRC defines non-consumptive research as that which requires that no action or set of actions on the part of users, either acting alone or in cooperation with other users over the duration of one or multiple sessions can result in sufficient information gathered from a collection of copyrighted works to reassemble pages from the collection.
