Quibbles aside though, it's hard to overstate how significant this finding is: not only this is (apparently) the only extant library left from classical antiquity, but also these are freaking charred scrolls from a volcanic eruption that were considered beyond repair! I found ScienceDaily's article much more informative in this regard:

Let's not get too excited here, it's not like they've magically retrieved all texts; they've retrieved small fragments from a handful of scrolls and the process involved some luck and guesswork, not just software. For the technique itself to work, the scroll has to be slightly bumpy, and not all of them are like that.

It's a great step forward, but still, it will likely take decades to retrieve significant portions of text from a small number of scrolls -- and this assuming efforts will always be fully funded (Italy has a lot of old stuff to look after, and they're not exactly swimming in cash right now -- they're even thinking of re-burying several large archeological sites because they simply cannot protect them at this time).
