Project Gutenberg

Project Gutenberg is all about making what is legally accessible, as accessible as possible. Not only do they offer thousands of books, often scanned to retain the orinal formating, illustrations and FEEL of the book, but now offering audio books read by volunteers and very nicely done, too.

Our library can’t afford a downloadable collection of audioboos–we’re still checking out cassette tapes and CDs.

But fortunately I can steer my patrons toward Project Gutenberg, and show them their offerings.

Impressive.

Again, here is the link.
