This session will provide a review of the agreement and plans for work between Google and the University of Michigan (UM), and it will provide updates on the progress of the project. The briefing will focus on conversion, content in Google, and Michigan's efforts with UM's copy of the content. It will conclude with a discussion of future directions for the content at Michigan, raising questions about the implications for an archive like this for higher education.
