Thing #22

Don't throw me in the briar patch!

I have been aware of the Gutenberg project and others for a long time, but until "forced" to go exploring I have left it at that. It sounds like a fairy tale come true for a bibliophile.

It was interesting to scan the lists of books in the public domain; as a some-time writer, an editor, and librarian all in one, I have more than a passing interest in public domain and copyright issues.

At 6 am today, I also discovered that I can volunteer to do proofreading for the project.

Don't throw me in the briar patch! or Anywhere but Nineva.

I need to do some more exploring at the library to check out the other sources.
