The Digital Orchid Library is a collaboration between Michigan State University,
the American Orchid Society, the Missouri Botanical Garden, and the National
Agricultural Library. Page images for the digitized titles are available in
two ways:
- The "View page images" option makes individual pages accessible through
a page-turning interface which allows the user to select the next or previous
image or to specify an image number to be viewed.
- The "View transcript" option generates links to all page images arranged
under the chapter or section headings of the book. Tables of contents and
back-of-book indexes are reproduced in full, with hyperlinks leading to
the page to which they refer. This method of display is one we are experimenting
with, and welcome feedback from users. Two books have been transcribed
in this manner: Orchid Culture and About Orchids. Both can be found in
the category "Narratives on Orchid Growing."
