 ### Dataset Summary
 
-The SF Nexus Extracted Features dataset contains text and metadata from 137 mid-twentieth century science fiction book covers, originally digitized from Temple University Libraries' Paskow Science Fiction Collection.
-Because this is a collection of copyrighted fiction, the texts in this dataset have been disaggregated.
-Each text has also been split into chunks of approximately 1000 words to improve performance of topic modeling and other NLP analyses.
-The metadata includes information about the texts' title, author, publication date, and (sub)genres. 
+The SF Nexus Extracted Features dataset contains text and metadata from 137 mid-twentieth century science fiction books, originally digitized from Temple University Libraries' Paskow Science Fiction Collection.
+After digitization, the texts were cleaned using Abbyy FineReader.
+Because this is a collection of copyrighted fiction, the texts were then disaggregated.
+The metadata includes information about the texts' title, author, publication, and genre. 
 
 ### About the SF Nexus Corpus
 The Paskow Science Fiction collection contains primarily materials from post-WWII, especially mass-market works of the New Wave era (often dated to 1964-1980).
-For more information on the project to digitize and curate a corpus of "New Wave" science fiction, see Alex Wermer-Colan's post on the Scholars Studio blog, ["Building a New Wave Science Fiction Corpus."](https://sites.temple.edu/tudsc/2017/12/20/building-new-wave-science-fiction-corpus/).

+ 'summary': 'Tatja Grimm grew up among stone-age primitives, but she always knew that she was destined for something greater. When she starts working on the fabulous barge that circles her world publishing magazines, she begins to discover how very much she never knew. Exposed to new technology, to reading, to people who have experienced the wider world, she finds wonder in all of it. Rising through the ranks she proves far more special than anyone could have known. Before she is done, the world will know that her intelligence is matched only by her insatiable appetite for more, which makes conquering her world less an end than a beginning.',
