Breeding, Marshall
Computers in Libraries, v28 n9 p36-38 Oct 2008

The Google Library Print project, the Open Content Alliance, and others have taken on incredibly ambitious projects to digitize enormous numbers of books in some of the world's biggest libraries. Digitization of book collections stands to fundamentally change how individuals find and gain access to the written word. In this article, the author takes a look at the opportunities made possible through the digitization of multimedia content.
