Looks like Google’s making a play for dominance in searching printed text, as well — adding to its Google Print service, the company is piloting a program that will digitize a small chunk of the library holdings at Harvard, Oxford, Stanford, Michigan, and the New York Public Library. It looks like the pilot will just include public-domain texts for now, but there’s a glimmer of information in the Harvard Library FAQ that the at some point, the index may also include copyrighted works. Interesting!
