Keeler's "Photographs of nebulae and clusters ..."
reflector" is also available in scanned form from ADS, but the link
to the bibliographic data is done in a very bad form. One has to know
the titles of the chapters to find them inhttp://adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html -
only the first
chapter is given under Keeler's name.
Another way to access it is through
http://adsabs.harvard.edu/bulletins_service.html ,
but this is also not very comfortable.
Both digitized versions have their advantages and disadvantages,
and both are not state-of-the-art. It is now possible to combine
in a PDF file both the scans (images of the pages) and the OCR
text, so that the user can see the original text and can also search
in the OCR'ed text. I may give links to examples if someone
is interested.
Kind regards,
