Project Gutenberg Newsletter for August 2024
This is the Project Gutenberg Newsletter for August 2024 CONTENTS * Help Wanted * Join Distributed Proofreaders * Find Project Gutenberg on social media * New eBook Listings from July 2024 * Help Wanted Got programming skills? Web development skills? Can you help with finding problems in current Project Gutenberg eBooks, or figuring out problems when automatic conversion fails. Project Gutenberg welcomes specific suggestions or fixes, as well as people to join the team working on day-to-day operations. You can find most of the code behind the Project Gutenberg website here: https://github.com/gutenbergtools It is intentional that we have very little dynamic content on https://www.gutenberg.org/. We use Javascript only to pre-fill the search box with suggestions, and the site works fine without that. It is a design requirement that the site passes WCAAG2 accessibility, and works properly with screen readers and plain text browsers (such as elinks or lynx). Project Gutenberg's focus is on creating and distributing the content (70,000+ books), so we have a site that's easy to maintain without requiring much special expertise. The autocat3 program, which generates landing pages and handles search, is already more complex than we would prefer due to organic growth over the years. We do have some features we are hoping to add in the future. For example, a "shopping cart" approach where people would be able to select items, then return to see their flagged items or perhaps get a bulk download. Feature ideas are always welcome. Specific skills of interest include Python programming and CSS, along with familiarity with HTML5 and other standards used for Project Gutenberg's content. Write back to me with your interests. * Join Distributed Proofreaders Visit https://www.pgdp.net to learn about how to help create some of Project Gutenberg's forthcoming eBooks. Proofreading a page a day is easy, fun, and a great way to help bring literature to the world. There are many different roles for the different steps involved in digitizing a printed book to make a Project Gutenberg eBook. Beginners are welcome, and there is an online tutorial to get started. * Find Project Gutenberg on social media Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/project.gutenberg Facebook news feed of new eBooks: https://www.facebook.com/gutenberg.new Twitter (X): https://twitter.com/gutenberg_org @gutenberg_org Twitter news feed of new eBooks: https://twitter.com/gutenberg_new @gutenberg_new Mastodon: https://mastodon.social/@gutenberg_org Mastodon news feed of new eBooks: https://mastodon.social/@gutenberg_new Thanks to the Project Gutenberg Social Media Team for keeping these feeds interesting! * New eBook Listings from July ~ ~ ~ ~ Posting Dates for the below eBooks: 1 Jul 2024 to 31 Jul 2024 ~ ~ ~ ~ TITLE and AUTHOR EBOOK NO.
