It's nice to see something like this being made available to ordinary searchers. This might be a place where that annoying "feature" of pulling the search term out of the referer and highlighting it on the page might be useful. I clicked the link to the NY Trib but I can't find Dr Burnham. Can’t help with the rel=canonical issue, just wanted to say thanks for making sure that google indexes your content.

Perhaps you'd be better off doing a bit of content negotiation and serving up the OCRed content when Google (or another 'bot) requests the page viewer URL? Or, of course, including the OCRed content within the page viewer page.
