Darwin Online

The Guardian reports today that Cambridge University has put a microfilm copy of a notebook of Charles Darwin onto the web. The original has gone missing, presumed stolen. Cambridge University is putting the complete works of Darwin onto the web for free access to everyone. To date there are a staggering 50,000 pages of searchable text and 40,000 scanned images of Darwins writings and illustrations. This is only 50% of the material that is still to be published.
