Digital Library of India, initially hosted by Indian Institute of Science, CDAC, Noida, IIIT-Hyderabad during 2000s working in partnership with the Million Book Project, provides free access to many books in English and Indian languages. [1] The scanning of Indian language books has created an opportunity for developing Indian language optical character recognition (OCR) software. The publications are mainly in PDF or QuickTime format. [2]
Because of copyright laws, the texts are all out of copyright and therefore not sources for current information, but rather useful for history and background.
As of 2016 [update], DLI had scanned 550,603 titles.
Representative titles include:
- Ancient India, McCrindle J. W.. 1885.
- Ancient Indian Polity, Aiyangar K. V. Rangaswami. 1935.
- History of the Parsis Vol-I, Karaka Dosabhai Framji. 1884.
- A Treatise on Kala-Azar, Brahmachari Upendranath. 1928.
- "Aligarh kee taleemi tehreek", Khwaja Ghulamus Sayyedain, 1931
- "Makateeb-e-Sanai" by Professor Nazir Ahmed, 1962
Books in Urdu and Persian are also available. Examples include " Aligarh kee taaleemi tehreek" by Khwaja Ghulamus Sayyedain and Makateeb-e-Sanai by Professor Nazir Ahmad
DLI website has not been operational for maintenance reasons from 2017. The contents are available from archive.org [3]
