I shared a useful resource detailing methods for hacking Google Print. It explores techniques to bypass viewing limitations and extract full-page content from Google's book digitization project using scripts and browser-based workarounds.
I'm exploring Google Print, a tool for searching the contents of books. Though the interface is a simple search page, it indexes a massive library of scanned material as part of a major new digitization project.
