**Search engine company Google is to digitise many of the volumes in the libraries
of the major international universities of Harvard, Oxford, Stanford, the University
of Michigan, and the New York Public Library.**

Although full details of the partnership and the level of financial or other support
offered are not yet available, it seems that in the UK’s case, this offers a chance
to reverse the failed application for funding by the British Library to digitise
its volumes.
