The Cascade TLC Employee Lending Library: Do you have some books that need to get out? Do you have a spare minute and need a book to share it with? Or do you just want to know what your colleagues are reading? The Cascade TLC now houses an employee lending library. We have a moderate stack of books you can check out, and a good place for you to bring books to share. We even have stickers for you to put into your books to make sure they come back to you. Very special thanks to Cherise Frehner Mahoney for getting the ball rolling! Come and check it out! Literally. The Cascade TLC SSB 208 |

“Imagine a library that collected
all the world’s information about all the world’s books and made it
available for everyone to view and update,” write members of the
Open Content Alliance.
“We’re building that library.
Open Library is meant to serve as a vast digital card catalog, and Web surfers will be able to edit entries, much like in Wikipedia. The repository will also collect books in the public domain, a mission that will bring the library into competition with Google’s much-publicized book-scanning service. ... “If all goes well,” writes Ben Vershbow of if:book, “it’s conceivable that this could become the main destination on the Web for people looking for information in and about books.” That’s still a big if: The library will rely heavily on contributions from unpaid volunteers. But the Open Library has at least one thing going for it, according to Mr. Vershbow: “On presentation of public-domain texts, they already have Google beat.” The library offers books in a number of different file formats, including a “flip book” tool that attempts to simulate the experience of rifling through a hardbound tome. “This sort of re-enactment of paper functionality is perhaps too literal,” writes Mr. Vershbow, but he admits that it makes for a pretty decent reading experience. The Open Library plans to unveil a fuller site in October, and project officials will have to do plenty of work to meet that deadline. They plan to create an entry for every book ever published, not just digitized books in the public domain. —Brock Read http://chronicle.com/wiredcampus/index.php?id=2235 Submitted by: Max Macias: Portland Community College Library Serials |
