    YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 28, ARMENPRESS: Four libraries are being digitalized
    in Armenia. Director of the National Library Tigran Zargaryan told
    the reporters today that first magazines and periodicals will be
    digitized. Currently the number of digitalized books reaches about
    1 million but the number will grow.

    "The digitalization process have started since 2001 and currently the
    1-2% of the Armenian literature has been digitalized," Zargaryan said.

    He said the digitized books are being read from all the corners of
    the world.

    He said it has been done under the auspices of the Open Society
    Institute and currently state-funded. "The digitalization process
    will not result in job cut but vice versa," Zargaryan said.

    The digitalized books may be read at www.flib.sci and www.nla.am
    websites.
