Selección personal de 100 proyectos de digitalización internacionales y locales actualmente en funcionamiento. La elección se ha hecho siguiendo el interés que pueden tener las obras incluidas y en otras ocasiones por los servicios, las herramientas y las aplicaciones diferentes que se proponen. La mayor parte de los recursos tienen como objetivo ofrecer una copia digital de libros pero también se incluyen otras tipologías documentales: publicaciones periódicas, tesis, literatura gris, fotografías, grabados, grabaciones sonoras... Abundan los proyectos realizados por las bibliotecas nacionales y universitarias, los proyectos comerciales más representativos y las colecciones colaborativas. Una tipología a destacar es la de las plataformas que pretenden recuperar y difundir una cultura o una lengua. La lista incluye preferentemente proyectos de bibliotecas digitales con obras de dominio público, las obras de las que se pueden descargar e imprimir, también están incluidos pero materiales de pago. La ordenación de la selección está presentada alfabéticamente.This paper surveys a personal selection of 100 international and local digitalization projects currently underway, chosen on the basis of their inherent interest and of the services, tools and applications proposed. Most resources offer a digital copy of books, while some include other document types: periodicals, PhD theses, grey literature, photographs, engravings, sound recordings, and so on. Many projects are carried out by national and university libraries, and there are also some commercial projects and collaborative collections. Especially interesting are the platforms that aim to recover and disseminate a language or culture. The list includes mainly digital library projects with works in the public domain that can be downloaded and printed, although it also includes materials that may be consulted for a fee. Projects are ordered alphabetically.This paper surveys a personal selection of 100 international and local digitalization projects currently underway, chosen on the basis of their inherent interest and of the services, tools and applications proposed.
