Google Books Plans to Put 130 Million Books Online, Hires Silkroad IT Ltd's Digitization Group to Help - Hyderabad, India - October 1st, 2010

It seems like a daunting task, when even the best efforts of Google to scan, digitize, and put all known books online have only achieved putting 12 million books online so far. There are an estimated 118 million more books to go. If the average number of pages ,in an average book, is 300 we're talking about the need to scan over 56 Billion pages. Please don't try to do that in your local library!

Luckily there is a company that does not shy away from such tasks and sees this job as part of their normal routine. The managing Director of Silkroad IT Ltd, Mr. Mogiloji, that is based in India, said, "We have a billion people in India ready to go to work on such a massive project, so 56 Billion pages is something we are very happy to do." The task may be enormous, but so was writing all those books in the first place. Silkroad IT is known for its excellent skills in the digitization of media. It has long term contracts with the government of India to perform these services and is a leader in the most advanced technological processes to accomplish such jobs. It is not just printed materials that Silkroad It works with. They will digitize any content whether it be print, audio, video, and even podcasts and deliver this newly digitized content across any platform, whether it be on the Internet, over mobile phones, through VSN's or virtual syndication services. If anyone needs a digital copy of anything, Silkroad IT can provide it.

Silkroad IT headquarters its operation in Hyderabad, India which is one of the provinces in India that has seen enormous growth from the technology sector. The interesting thing about the technology involved in scanning a mountain of books is that there are also humans involved who are a critical component of the process. The physical books must be obtained, sorted, cataloged, and then processed for scanning and all that is done by human hands. It takes a lot of human hands to manage this process of digitizing millions of books. Not to mention the transportation of the physical books to the processing facilities. So this is a massive job creation impetus, coming at a time when new jobs are needed, almost as if a brand new manufacturing sector has been discovered. And the ultimate value of this work is to expand the worldwide sharing of knowledge resources in ways only our great grandchildren may appreciate. Imagine what it will be like to have every version of Shakespeare's plays at your fingertips or the great works of any other well-known writer . This is a luxury that will soon be in the hands of all of the world. This is thanks to Google books for promoting and supporting the effort and to Silkroad IT for agreeing to do the massive job. If it is late night and the local library is closed but one would sure would like to read something by Chaucer before they go to bed, they could search for it through hundreds of old dusty books in their personal library if they still have one, while not being sure if they own a copy or can find it. Instead they could simply go on Google books and immediately enjoy a good read. When reading a book on Google books, now that one knows how these books are digitized, take a small moment of thanks for the helping hands of Silkroad IT for doing the grunt work to put all these millions of books online.
