Cooperating with Google
The Austrian National Library partnered with Google to digitize its entire historical book collection from the 14th to 19th centuries, consisting of over 200 million pages from 600,000 volumes. This was the largest public-private partnership in Austria's cultural sector. The library handled tasks like selection, metadata, conservation while Google performed scanning and optical character recognition. The digitized books are available on Google Books and the library's digital library, providing open access to this significant historical collection.
