Abstract

Should digital libraries be based on image or text display? Which will serve users better? Experience and experiments show that users can employ either, and that there are technical advantages to each format. Often, material in both formats can be used together, and the long-run trend is probably towards Ascii material, even if reached by a circuitous path via images and OCR during a transition.
