Summary:
Thousands of pages from the largest collection of historic book is soon to be found on the internet. The Britisch library has made a deal with google. It allows readers to view, read and copy more than 250.000 text dating back to the 18th century. The library gets more than one million visitors a year and now want to "make the texts available to the whole world. We believe that we are building on this tradition of giving access to anyone, anywhere and at any time".

Reaction:
It think this is a really interesting article. I like the fact that the Britisch library has made a deal with google. We live in a modern world where you are able to find almost everything on the internet. It is a little bit out of date to still have to go to the library to find certain texts. Not a good thing for the libraries though. I work in a library myself and the internet and all the e-readers are making me to having to find another job soon. People don't go to libraries, they look on the internet.
