Hello Kani, Most of the books in the Project Gutenberg collection are in the public domain. That means that we have no more right to them than anybody else does. You can read more here: Project Gutenberg Permissions, Licensing and other Common Requests https://www.gutenberg.org/policy/permission.html The short version is that usually you don't need to ask for permission due to public domain status. When a book is public domain, PG literally have no more rights legally than you would have yourself. Please make sure to read the bits about use of the Project Gutenberg name; there are some restrictions on use of the trademark-protected name, especially for commercial use.

Here's a link to our Grantsville City fb page:
https://www.facebook.com/share/1PRnru5a7b/
I am creating a "this Constitution for the USA Volunteer Group Community". In our state which is basically a lot of Patriotic American volunteers. It is specifically dedicated to educating people on how to vote according to the U.S. Constitution and celebrating the writing and signing of the Constitution along with all things early American from James Town to now, with a emphasis on early America.The reason I am contacting you is because I would like to know if we can create a "this Constitution for the USA" App with all of your Historical American Patriotic books on it or a hyperlink specifically that says "this Constitution"in the web name that could take people to all of them? I would like to advertise the link at our Constitution Day Festivals if possible at all?
Please contact me when you get a chance? I would love to talk a little more regardless of starting the web page or not.
In Liberty,
Kani Salanoa

Thank you for your response Dan! Would you happen to know the how many and the names of the patriotic ebooks in your database you have? Im looking for books that address and talk about the the U.S. Constitution, Declaration of Independence, Founding Fathers, and Early America? I really like authors history books who were around and alive when the founding fathers were alive. I have another question to ask? To give some background of it, I am a organizer and founder of 3 City sponsored Festivals called Constitution Day. Its an event that focuses on teaching people what the clauses in Constitution means and building up the spirit of happiness from which clauses in the document should produce when applied correctly. As a vital corollary teaching the people how to vote the right way so we have Giants as Congressmen and U.S. presidents and not subjects. We incorporate fun things like games, puzzles, toys, plays, so on and so forth to educate folks. The other part is teaching anything related to Early America and America up to today's day and age in the form of talents/skills, exhibits, collections, etc. Please lmk if you can with any of these things Thank you for your time in advance!

Greetings, I thought it worth noting that the very first etext in Project Gutenberg was the Declaration of Independence. The 2nd one was the Bill of Rights. https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/1 https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/2 -Ben On Mon, Jul 20, 2026 at 12:52:49AM -0400, Dan Lowe via gutvol-d wrote:
