How does this project help U.Va. faculty and students?
The U.Va. Library is here to support research, teaching, and learning at U.Va and in the broader academic community. This project will make even more books available for these purposes. In the past, we worked to digitize public domain books as quickly as we could to support scholarship and teaching needs but faculty would still have to wait and the book(s) they needed in digital form weren’t always easy or fast to obtain. This project will bring additional materials to classroom teaching and research at the University.
