I was at a conference recently that covered some online books projects
and portals to sources. While they're not precisely teaching tools,
they are still helpful to students when they are conducting research.
So, I thought I'd share.
Some projects that were mentioned:
American Memory
Google Book Project
"Million Books" Project
Abraham Lincoln Book Collection
Portals to freely available Full-Text E-Books:
Internet Archive
InfoMINE
OAIster - "Union catalog of digital resources"
The Online Books Page - over 30,000 titles
My Library@OCKHAM
Open Source for Index Data:
Pazpar2: Open Source metasearch software
MasterKey: hosted version, access to Project Gutenbert, OIAster, etc
and portals to sources. While they're not precisely teaching tools,
