Technology Review: Hathitrust Digital Library

The HATHITRUST DIGITAL LIBRARY works in partnership with academic and research institutions to provide access to digital materials from around the world.
Users can search full-text or the catalog. Advanced search tools and tips are available.
Visitors can browse collections including user-created featured collections on thematic topics. Users can also create and share their own collections.
An easy-to-use interface is provided to read books online. Users can also download books for reading off-line. While some titles require a login from a cooperating institution because of copyright issues, many are available to the public.
Librarians will find this website to be a good source for difficult to find books. While most of the items are aimed at scholars, many historical books for youth are also available.
To visit the digital library, go to https://www.hathitrust.org/.
