Duke sets the standard! New service to users: Digitize This Book
Setting a standard! New Library Service: Digitize This Book
From stacks to scanner to your inbox. We’re piloting a new service to digitize public domain books for Duke users on demand.
Starting
this semester, Duke University faculty, students, and staff can request
to have certain public domain books scanned on demand. If a book is published before 1923* and
located in the Perkins, Bostock, Lilly, or Music Library or in the
Library Service Center (LSC), a green “Digitize This Book” button
(pictured here) will appear in its online catalog record. Clicking on
this button starts the request.Within two weeks (although likely sooner), you will get an email with a link to the digitized book in the Duke University Libraries collections on the Internet Archive. You—and the rest of the world—can now read this book online, download it to your Kindle, export it as a PDF, or get it as a fully searchable text-only file. And you never have to worry about late fees or recalls!
