If your fingers are cramped from retyping PDFs into Word files, it’s a godsend.

"OCR Terminal’s free, Web-based Optical Character Recognition service lets you turn 
scanned images into fully searchable text files.

You upload the file; OCR Terminal extracts the text without altering its formatting 
or layout. The results can be downloaded or e-mailed in any of four formats: rtf, 
txt, doc, or xml."

"Ten guards and the warden couldn't have torn me out of those books. Months passed 
without even thinking about being imprisoned....I had never been so truly free in 
my life." - Malcolm X 

"Some kids go to the library ... Others to the street. But they can't go to the 
libraries if the libraries are closed." - Officer Dombranski, NYPD
