Project Gutenberg
The Gutenberg Project and the World eBook Library will allow free access to the Intranet, and for a month -from 4th July to 4th August- 300,000 books, most of them from the Electronic Books Worldwide Library, will have a service for subscription. The initiative is inside the World eBook Fair, owing to the commemoration of the 35th anniversary of the first online file in the Gutenberg Project (Declaration of independence of the United States). The Gutenberg Project was born in 1971, being its promoter Michae Hart. Nowadays there are 18,000 books. It is a collaborative and unselfish project in which any Net user can offer help, and it tries to offer literature to the most of people as possible, editing titles which can be accessible in an easy and free way, and being compatible with all kind of computers and softwares, always observing the authors rights.
