Submitted by garyprice on Tue, 2012-05-01 07:25.

Yesterday, the U.S. Copyright Office posted two RFI's.

The first, is to learn more about software to build a virtual card catalog of historical copyright records.

The second, is to learn more about crowdsourcing the data capture from about 70 million catalog cards.

For those of you interested, you can find highlights, links to the full text docs, and a bit of background in a new LJ infoDOCKET post.
