Reading room

What do I see? (from top to bottom)

• Flags to choose the reading room language (not that of the book!).
• A drop down menu to choose a book to read.
• An image of the chosen page.
• A text-only version of the page.

What is on the left?

• A listbox that links to selected pages via page number or a short dscription (if the librarian did it!)
• A link to this help.
• A link to the e-bookshop, “About this book”, where you may download the pdf files and get some information about the bbok.

What can I do with the image?

• Copy it (right-clic); you get a jpeg file at 150 dpi.
• Watch it in another browser page (right-clic); you may then zoom-in/out.
  • Some books and thus the images are still under copyright. Please refer to the e-bookshop page (link “About this book”) to read the copyright status of the original.
  • All the images and text proposed here are under the CC (Creative Common) License. Please comply with the rules stated here.

What can I do with the text-only field?

• Copy it for subsequent use. However, you should be aware that:
  • The text was automatically generated. Although it was checked, it may contain errors and even some corrections of mistakes found in the original.
  • Multiple columns are mixed up, and figure captions may be found within the running text.
  • Special characters are wrongly converted, extra spaces can be added, etc…

Where can I download the book?

• Use the link to the e-bookshop “About this book”.
• Then choose among the “original” (heavy file; not searchable!) and “interpreted” (lighter file; searchable)
