Hathi Trust

With a tag-line that reads "There's an elephant in the library":

A group of the nation's large research libraries has launched a new online digital repository for scanned books and other documents, essentially making the digital holdings of each institution available to all of the others. Called the HathiTrust, the new group already holds 78 terabytes of information—that's over 731 million pages of content.

Also, the government of Uruguay received a donation from the government of Spain of a virtual library containing nearly 1500 titles.
