I caanot see an instance where digitizing an entire original work
for the purpose of freely circulatimg the title wouldn't violate
copyright law on all four factors.

Digtizing a book for the purpose of preservation is allowable,
(it should probable be part of a libraries collection policy, if
we only had the time...).
