The INTERSECT digital library ---  http://intersect.uoregon.edu      --  is
literary feet away from Knight.  The Intersect e-books are web-based and the
whole operation strikes me as much better than many similar efforts that
I've seen.  I think the Intersect people deserve a round of applause.  While
they probably did it with a 50 trillion $$ grant from the Department of
Education, that, too, is worth noting.  They obviously have the horses to
write grants -- and are very successful at it (as their resume shows).
Perhaps they should be adopted as a role model.  Unlike most digital
libraries, what they have produced is actually useful ......
