I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this question but maybe some of you have an answer:

 

Sometimes I get a link to  http://www.archive.org/... from Google searches on a specific topic where I find the scanned full text of a book for which copyright has expired and a statement like

 

" This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project

to make the world's books discoverable online. "

is put in the beginning.

One Example:



--http://www.archive.org/stream/deutschewortfor00doufgoog/deutschewortfor00doufgoog_djvu.txt

In most cases I find that lots of OCR-errors have been made. At the moment I do not find a function to correct them.


I think it would be valueable to have the option to correct what the machine reading was missing. Will there be a correcting option sometime in the future?

 

 

Thanks in advance
