Sure, I don't go to events much anymore, but I come across links that
people might like to see...

This might make a scribe cry... it's so cool.

The British Library is taking rare books and digitizing them and
offering them online. I saw something about this early on last year,
but it looks like they're getting the program up and going... the
Turning the Pages program... Make sure you've got your Shockwave
player installed...
