Information supply in the era of mass digitisation
- Information Supply in the era of mass digitization Drawing on his experience at the Bodleian Library and now at the British Library, Ronald Milne will share his first-hand impressions of 'boutique' and mass digitization programmes, such as those being undertaken by Google and Microsoft, and their effect on information supply.

What are the benefits and what are the strategic issues that we are bound to consider?
