The great78project is digitizing 78's now at about 5,000 sides/month,
and we have about 56k done.
We are finding many duplicates, so we are looking for the best version
and then assign that to the different collections rather than duplicate.
Here is a post about how it is doing:

As part of this, I made a list of the digitized records sorted by
label/catalog number:

I thought others might want to look at overlap with you collections on
what we have done already. If you do a sample or something, pls post
what you find-- how much overlap is there?
(while we are 56k in, we are looking to digitize 400k, so this is not
the end-all. we are still signing up the physical collections).
