Cornell is Partnering with Google
Cornell University Library is partnering with Google Inc. to digitize materials from the library’s collections and make them available online through Google Book Search. About 500,000 volumes from Cornell’s collection of nearly 8 million will be digitized over the next six years, including both public domain and copyrighted works. Cornell is the 27th institution to join the Google Book Search Library Project, which includes the New York Public Library, 19 other universities and several European libraries.
Cornell Library is involved in several other initiatives aimed at putting the university’s special and core collections online, including partnerships with Microsoft, Amazon.com and the U.S. Agriculture Information Network. A list of Cornell digital collections is available at http://rdc.library.cornell.edu.
