Michael Hart, founder of Project Gutenberg, invented eBooks in 1971 and continued to inspire
the creation of eBooks and related technologies today. He announced that the greatest value created by
computers would not be computing, but the storage, retrieval and searching of what was stored in our
libraries. There are three categories of the Project Gutenberg Library: Light Literature — such as
Alice in Wonderland, Through the Looking-Glass, A Christmas Carol, Peter Pan, Aesop’s Fables, etc;
Heavy Literature — such as the Bible or other religious documents, Shakespeare, Moby Dick,
Paradise Lost, Heart of Darkness, etc; References — such as Roget’s Thesaurus, almanacs,
dictionaries, encyclopedias, etc. The Light Literature Collection is designed to get people to the
computer in the first place, whether a preschooler or a great-grandparent. We ( Project Gutenberg team )
love to hear about kids or grandparents taking each other to an Etext to Peter Pan when they come back
from watching HOOK at the movies, or when they read Alice in Wonderland after seeing it on TV.
Nearly every Star Trek movie has quoted current Project Gutenberg Etext releases. This was a
primary concern when we chose the books for our libraries.
