“Though the night was made for loving
And the day returns too soon
Yet we'll go no more a-roving
By the light of the moon.”
―Lord Byron, We'll Go No More A-Roving

Some Useful Projects in Book Digitization
Inspired by the My 3 Book Stack For Show Your Stack Contest post by
Overview: Unlike the discrete digital collections or non-mass preservation projects which pick up specific books, mass digitization of books is the conversion of material into scanned documents on a large scale. The technology used is page-by-page photographing combined with the optical character recognition (OCR) software. Nonetheless, it produces limited in the structural markup searchable text and the OCR output is generally used without a second human revision. Non-mass digitization may produce richly marked-up text. Here, a list of useful online projects you can profit from to either learn and explore new literature or to refer to for book preservation.
Stay in love with books and reading!
