Books are 'transcribed'?

So the text of all the books is converted to text?

I think the impression is that the books were censored in way to prevent individual thought or to fit into the narrative of the corporation's rule.

the word 'transscribe' intself means "writting from one place to another" (trans= from+to and scribe = write). So in this case it's correct, since the texts were scribes from books to Zero.

All books were rewritten to fit the narrative of the giant corporations.

Original texts were gone?

That's definitely the impression I got.
