University of California Mass Digitization Projects Update Users Council Annual Meeting May 8, 2008 Heather Christenson, Mass Digitization Project Mgr, California Digital Library

Mass Digitization at UC Overview of current projects, locations, roles of participants Description of process What have we digitized and where you can find it A few thoughts on book discovery, scholarly use & what the future holds

Three Projects, One Goal Goal: Mass digitization of UC Libraries’ book collections Google In-copyright and out-of-copyright works Available via Google search engine and Google Book Search Microsoft Out-of-copyright works only Available via Microsoft Live Search Books Open Content Alliance Out-of-copyright works only Available (via the Internet Archive website) to any and all search engines Library and grant-funded

Why Are They Doing It? Google’s vision: To put all the world’s information online Google and Microsoft: To gain marketshare and competitive advantage for their search (and online advertising) services It’s all about Search OCA: To put the world’s information online, for free, forever It’s all about the public good

Why Are We Doing It? Create ability for anyone to discover & access books anywhere, anytime, (essentially) for free New kinds of scholarship To preserve and protect our collections To explore new collection & access models

Participant Roles UC Libraries supply & curate books and bibliographic metadata supply onsite scanning facilities when appropriate preserve digital files created Third-parties (Google, Microsoft) provide funding for book scanning digitization –scanning, post-processing

Microsoft/OCA Production scanning began April 2006 Books from all UC Libraries Internet Archive: Digitization Agent Projected scope 100 K books per year Pick-list driven: limit to public domain Scanning Centers (30 scanners “scribes”) Location: UC at SRLF, Internet Archive

Google Production scanning began October 2006 Scanning books from NRLF Projected Scope 2.5 million books during 6 year period Bulk pulling: public domain /in-copyright Scanning location Books transported to offsite Google digitization facility Expansions to UC campus libraries, 2008 UCSC & UCSD are sending books

Participating UC locations Microsoft/OCA Northern Regional Library Facility (NRLF) Southern Regional Library Facility (SRLF) UC Berkeley, Bancroft Library UCLA Google Northern Regional Library Facility (NRLF) + UC Berkeley Systems UC Santa Cruz UC San Diego
