Indeed, it wouldn't really be Hibernate reading in the files. Instead, you would just write normal Java code to read the input file, parse it as such to get it into a format that is useful to you, which would probably mean Java objects, and then use Hibernate to persist the objects themselves.
Check out my signature links if you want some tutorials on how to do the Hibernate part.
Good luck!
