Digitizing books reflection

Every morning a truck from Google returns books that they checked out from Stanford University, and after they drop all those off, they just load the truck up with more books to digitalize. So far they have scanned 12 million books at many libraries; their goal is to scan over 40 million books.
Spencer michels says that Stanford, the University of California-Berkley, and the University of Michigan have signed agreements with Google allowing the firm to scan their books.
