Through a tweet from the BNF, I come across a splendid edition of Lewis Carroll\u2019s masterpiece \u00a0\"Alice in Wonderland\" illustrated by Arthur Rackham from 1908. A pure wonder.<\/mark><\/p>\n

The opportunity to discover or rediscover another marvel, Gallica, the digital library of the Biblioth\u00e8que Nationale de France.<\/p>\n

\"gallica\"<\/p>\n

The BNF online library celebrated its 20th anniversary last year.<\/a> It offers users millions of documents scanned in high definition and indexed ready to be viewed on your computer screen or on your mobile phone. A veritable Ali Baba cavern of culture and art.<\/p>\n

The 1908 edition of Alice in Wonderland is a good example of what Gallica can offer you as a teacher, student or simply curious.<\/p>\n

A complete and well thought-out document reader<\/h2>\n

\"gallica\"<\/p>\n

The document reader proposed by the BNF is very well done<\/b> and integrates the functions necessary for reading, discovering or studying the work.<\/p>\n

You will be able to read the book by flipping through the pages one after the other with a simple click. You can zoom endlessly until you discover the very grain of the paper in the book that has been scanned.<\/p>\n

A menu bar on the left of the screen provides you with all the functions available. In addition to zooming, you can choose to view one page at a time or a double page. You can opt for a mosaic display too.<\/p>\n

Gallica also offers a reading function aloud. You can thus listen to entire passages of the book read by a high-quality synthesis voice.<\/p>\n

Powerful and fast search functions<\/h2>\n

Formidable too, the integrated search engine<\/b> This allows you to find any word or expression inside the book. Gallica also offers a comprehensive full-text search engine that I recommend. It makes it possible to find any digital document in the vast shelving of the digital library at lightning speed.<\/p>\n

I advise you to open a free account on Gallica. You can therefore, when you consult a book or document add it to find it easily in your personal library. You can also drag and drop digital bookmarks as you read them and find them with a single click.<\/p>\n

\"gallica\"<\/p>\n

Other amazing features offered by Gallica, the ability to download documents for offline consultation<\/b> or without a connection. For the Alice book, for example, you can download it in PDF, TXT, image or EPUB format, which will allow you to read the book on your e-reader. You can download the page you are viewing online or the entire document.<\/p>\n

A real happiness.<\/mark><\/p>\n
