eBooks on Demand
Numerous European libraries are working on a digitisation service for copyright-free works within the framework of the Europe-wide "eBooks on Demand" project.
The historic collection of Greifswald University Library is also integrated in this service. Interested parties can have the desired texts sent to them in electronic book form quickly and easily against payment of a fee.
