@lobingera@chaos.social again, there are other countries than just Germany. There are even other languages than just German. Based on the reports they are scanning books that are pre-ISBN. Yes, that would mean anything pre-1970, not necessary centuries old books. But yes, I think very old books are definitely valuable to them, too.

@lobingera@chaos.social @tante@tldr.nettime.org that only works if libraries have those books in their inventory in the first place though

@lobingera@chaos.social yes, that exists in some countries, not all countries. What about those books from those countries? And then you have books that predate this. Unless you expect German National Library to time travel to 16th century to obtain a copy of a book?
