World Digital Library
OK, so it’s not exactly the entire world, but
it’s a good start. Primary source material from most
of the countries that are currently part of UNESCO
has been put on the web where anyone can look at it
for free. I’ve covered this in detail for a workshop
that’ll appear in Computeractive
magazine sometime soon. But meantime, you should
check it out anyway as some of the content -
especially those early maps - is amazing.
