Create an online E-Library

Start a program scanning the library of congress into an online library where it can be accessed for free.  It would make it so much easier and cheaper for public/ school libraries to offer the people they serve quality access to knowledge.  Going hand in hand with the plan already in place to drastically expand broadband lines and invest in 21st century schools, this would do much to improve American education while making it more cost effective.  It would also save money and the enviornement by reducing the amount of paper purchased by the government when stocking multiple libraries with the same books.
