Using NewsOnce you log in you will see recent news items to the news channels that you have subscribed to. These could be news channels on the portal or news from blogs elsewhere. To choose which channels you want to subscribe to go to myPreferences and select from the list. These will then appear on your Main page. If you have an Advanced account you can create a channel and edit news.Setting up the electronic texts that you want to analyzeOverview for Setting Up Texts
Once you are logged into "myTAPoR", your own personal TAPoR project management area, you can begin setting up a text to analyze by selecting "myTexts" from the main navigation. These texts are not typically loaded into the portal, but you can provide the information so that you have a full bibliographic reference and the portal can get the text when it needs to.
There are 3 main ways to add texts: using a Quick Add link, clicking the Add button in the myTexts Library, or using the TAPoR Texts panel to add public texts to your Library. The "myTexts" Library panel shows you which texts you have available to analyze. If it is your first time using TAPoR, the scrollbar area will be empty.
There is a fourth way to add a text to your Library, but this method does not require you to be logged into MyTapor immediately. This method involves clicking a Quick Add button while viewing another site on the Internet. This will then take you to your Tapor account so that you can log in and, once logged in, will add the site’s content as a text to your Library.

Adding your own texts
"URL": Here, you type the full URL of the webpage you would like to analyze. For example, to study the text on the home page of the CBC News website, enter "http://www.cbc.ca" into the text field provided. NOTE: you must make sure to include the “http://” in your URL. Click on "VIEW" to see the webpage that you have specified to analyze. Ensure that this is the page you want to study; otherwise, correct the URL.
"File Upload": If the text for analysis is located on your computer, you need to upload the file to TAPoR. Click on the "Browse..." button to open up the "File Upload" window. Find where your text file is located on your computer. Highlight the text, and click the "Open" button. NOTE: the text file must be either XML, HTML, TEI, plain text, MEP, DocBook, or TARL. For instance, a document saved as a Microsoft Word Document cannot be uploaded. If you attempt to add a text with an invalid file format for the TAPoR portal, an exclamation mark (!) will appear next to "File Upload". Clicking on the button labeled "..." will allow you to make a new file selection.
"Text": You can type the text you would like to analyze directly into the text box available when you select the "Text" tab. Type the text, or copy and paste text from a document into the text box. There is no word limit.
"Aggregate Text": To combine two or more separate texts into one text for analysis, select "Aggregate Text". This allows you to define as a single text a work that on the Web is spread out over many Web pages. For example a book where each chapter is a separate Web page. To combine Web pages add a full URL into the "URL" text field. NOTE: you must make sure to include the "http://" in your URL. To define the second text, click on "Add URL". A second field appears, within which another URL can be entered. To add a third text, click "Add URL" again, and continue this process until you have defined all the texts you wish to combine.
If you wish to include a text that is already within your "myTexts" library, select the text from the drop down menu within the "Text List" area. Click "Add Text’s URL". Notice that the text has been added to the list of text sources to be combined.
There are small 'up arrow' and 'down arrow' icons located next to each URL. Clicking on the "up arrow" will send the text one above the preceding text, while clicking the "down arrow" will send the text one below the text beneath it.
To delete a URL, select it by clicking the "Select" box next to the URL. You may select multiple URLS for deletion at one time. After making your selections, click "Remove Selected URL(s)".
Defining File Format, Tags, and Visibility
Once you have chosen a text source, you can define the file format, tags and visibility.
Define More DetailsYou can define more details for the text you are adding to your myTexts library by clicking on the "More Details" button. This allows you to enter enough information for a bibliographic reference that can then be formatted for you in different ways.
myTexts Library
All of the texts that you add appear in your myTexts library.
TAPoR TextsThe TAPoR Texts panel shows all of the texts that are publicly available to all TAPoR account holders. Therefore, any text that you set to "public" visibility will appear in the TAPoR texts panel. This allows you to add to you account texts that others have defined using the add to favorites button which looks like a "plus" and a "heart". You can search for a public text three ways: according to the tag it is filed under, what file format it is, or you can view a listing of all the texts and sort them by label, author or date. Once you have found a text you would like to add to your MyTexts library, simply click on the "Add to myTexts" button (the button with an addition sign and a heart). The text will now appear in your myTexts library.DUCT TAPoRD.U.C.T. is a Digitally Unified Collections of Texts (D.U.C.T.) developed by the Electronic Text Centre (ETC), and is an infrastructure that brings together TAPoR content and those functions to be performed against it, most notably the managing and searching of texts and associated interoperability issues. For more information on D.U.C.T. please visit: http://dev.hil.unb.ca/Texts/Engine/display.php?c=brief The following steps describe how to search for texts within D.U.C.T. from within the TAPoR portal.
Setting up the tools to use
Overview for Setting Up ToolsThere are 3 main ways to add tools to your myTools Library: using Quick Add, clicking on the "Add to My Tools" button (addition and heart symbol) next to a tool in the TAPoR Tools panel, and clicking the Add button in the myTools Library.

Each tool appears with a brief description of its function. For more information, press "Detailed Info". "Website" will open the TAPoRware website in a new window. To the right of every tool name is written HTML, PLAIN, and/or XML; this indicates what type of text the tool will work with.
