LIBRARY OF CONGRESS TO DIGITIZE AMERICAN BOOKS

Dick Johnson writes: "The Library of Congress just announced that
it has received $2 million from the Alfred P. Sloan foundation to
digitize thousands of certain books in its collections. The project
is titled "Digitizing American Imprints."

The project will concentrate on brittle books, books of American
history, U.S. genealogy and regimental histories, certain photographic
books and books from six specialized collections. Some of the regional
histories include memoirs, diaries and other collections from the
Civil War period.
