I have passed the request for information along to Danielle at the Texas State Library.
Are any of you doing the scanning or using OCR (Optical Character Recognition) software? Thanks for your help. Laurie ----Original Message----- From: Nanette Miller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: OCR software Our library is planning to have all our microfilm (newspapers, census images) digitized. Genealogy volunteers have scanned the more recent years, and burned them onto DVDs. We want to either get the OCR software, so that the digitized images may be searched by keyword. Do you know how other libraries are doing this? Does someone actually index everything? I am trying to learn more about how this is done, so that I can get some pricing on the software, or find a company that will do this for us. Any information would be most appreciated. Thank you, Nanette
