Library of Congress Digital Library effort

The Library of Congress has been actively seeking gift funds to continue the digitization efforts begun five years ago by its American Memory pilot project, which has successfully digitized more than 210,000 items. Many of these items have been made available to 44 test sites around the United States, and selected items from this project are also available via the Library of Congress's World-Wide Web server (http://www.loc.gov). Last October, the library received a total of $13 million in grant and gift funds to digitize its American historical collections, many of which are unique, and to help it identify instructional uses of digitized library materials.
