Project Gutenberg

Project Gutenberg is a website dedicated to making out-of-print, non-copyrighted books available again to the public via e-books—and completely free! Currently there are over sixty thousand e-books available on the site.

Project Gutenberg is run entirely by volunteers. Once volunteers hunt down old books, they’re scanned in and converted into e-books. Before the books are turned into e-books for the public, Project Gutenberg relies on Distributed Proofreaders to help proofread the text.

I volunteer time to this worthy project in order to build additional proofreading experience.

Check out this organization! It’s a great resource for book lovers.
