In this talk we cover the third and fourth chapters of Adrians Johns' book. The things that stood out to me were more about the social importance of reading rather than the research technologies and data collected. There was a profound anxiety that an American public that wasn't literate would not be up to the challenges of the 20th century. There's an explicit connection here to Mortimer Adler's idea of the Great Books helping people prepare to be better citizens, and Johns actually mentions Adler in Chapter 4.
