There was a posting on the SIMH list today from Joerg Hoppe
<j_hoppe at t-online.de> about a project to build a microfiche scanner
that has now successfully converted 53,545 document pages to
electronic form, and the files are being uploaded to the PDP-11
section of bitsavers.org. The scanner is described here:

        http://retrocmp.com/projects/scanning-micro-fiches
        
There are links on that page to the rest of the story.  It is an
amazing piece of work for a single person.
