Secondly it is to encourage some public-spirited
individuals or companies to put such materials online,
though I acknowledge it would be a 'labour of love'.
The Chemical Educator would like to sponsor the digitization of selected
antique chemistry texts.
To begin this project, my idea is to arrange for 10-12 texts to bedigitised over
a period of a year and publish them in the Chemical Educator Library.
This library would be open to public - free of charge.
Springer-Verlag of New York will
work closely with the IBM research group that has devolved specialised
digital cameras and handing techniques that produce superb reproductions
while protecting these delicate books.
