If you're like me, you're always looking for another resource to read with. Many are familiar with Libby and Hoopla, two of our most popular resources. Today, take a look at a third resource on our Databases page: Project Gutenberg.
Project Gutenberg is an online library of free eBooks and has been digitizing, archiving, and distributing literary works for over 50 years. It's the oldest eBook project on the internet! They publish classics and books in the public domain for free use. Currently, there are over 70,000 free eBooks to choose from. Here are a few great classics you can find FREE on Project Gutenberg, as well as a modern interpretation you can find at KHCPL!
