Stephen's post about Amiga books still found in UK libraries got me thinking about something. Books about Amiga subjects must be getting quite hard to find these days, but there are still a lot of Amiga fans out there who I can imagine would be very interested in a central location to source these reference books.
Therefore I think it would be great to create an Amiga book archive containing scanned Amiga reference books in PDF format for everyone to access and download.
This could include the official Commodore Amiga manuals that were included with the system, plus reference books about anything related to the Amiga.
Obviously as the software section is already up and running, and manuals and reference books for specific software could also be interlinked into each software entry on the site, so an Amiga book archive would also aid the increase in reference content within the software section.
Do you all think this is a good idea?
And if so does anyone own any Amiga reference books and are willing to start scanning them in? I own a few and will get scanning when I have some time.
It would be great to create the PDFs so they are fully OCR'd, allowing users to search the text of each reference book.
