The reasons for "opening" copyright, as well as the specific license agreements under which they are opened, are as varied as our authors. Perhaps a book was outdated enough to be put out of print, yet some people still needed the information it covered. Or the author or subject of a book felt strongly that it should be published under a particular open copyright.

Maybe the book was written collectively by a particular community, as in the case of our Community Press books. But there's more to making Open Books available online than simply adopting an open license or giving up rights granted under copyright law. The print books need to be converted to a digital format so that they're accessible via the web. While the books listed here use various open licenses, since 2003 we've focused on using the licenses created by Creative Commons. MSRI Books. InTech - Open Science Open Minds | InTechOpen.

N Welcome! Over the last decade, a quiet revolution has been going on in the development of a large library of "digital" or "electronic" books. While there are still large gaps, a very substantial body of "Western" thought is available in the form of downloadable or on-line books. Most major writers, from Plato to Hemingway, Fitzgerald, Proust, or John Le Carre, are accessible on the Internet. Subjects range from the highly scholarly to the contemporary and popular -- especially as more commercial publishers discover the virtues of "on-line" distribution.

This index is intended as a "Meta-index" for most major eBook sites, along with thousands of smaller specialized sites. Here's some of what you will find: E-Books Directory - Categorized Books, Short Reviews, Free Downloads. Open Access Textbooks: Home. Books | Global Text Project.
