\uD83D\uDCD8 Factors that may affect the download speed

When you click the link to download the whole book, the time it takes to build the file depends on the length of the book. Building the file for a book that has 90 pages will be much faster than a book that has 900 pages. If you don't need the entire book, consider selecting only the range of pages that you need. 

When HathiTrust member libraries create digital books, they scan each page in the book as a high resolution image. They also create a separate plain-text file for each page which contains the text in that image. When you request a file download, we custom-build the file based on what you’ve selected. The build operation can include processes to reduce the size of the pages, convert the text to a new format, or repackage the pages. As a result, you may have to wait a few seconds or even minutes while this file is custom-built for you.
