Ingram Digital Offers a Free Transition for Publishers Left Adrift

Ingram Digital is offering “to transition all participating Microsoft Live Search Books publishers into its Ingram Search and Discover platform at no cost, enabling publishers to continue making their content searchable and available to readers.”

Microsoft announced last week that it would be discontinuing its Live Search program. Microsoft scanned in, digitized, and indexed 750000 books and 80 million scholarly articles for its Live Search program which is similar to Google.
