Project Gutenberg is a website that houses a catalog of thousands of free e-books. The project was started in 197,1 and for the past 3 decades, the catalog has grown to the size it is now. Their current goal is adding 500 books per month. Project Gutenberg does not digitize any books subject to copyright, so this means that the collection is mostly consistent of books printed prior to 1923 (at least for the U.S.). However, this means that the collection contains "classic books from the start of this century and previous centuries, from authors like Shakespeare, Poe, Dante, as well as well-loved favorites like the Sherlock Holmes stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the Tarzan and Mars books of Edgar Rice Burroughs, Alice’s adventures in Wonderland as told by Lewis Carroll, and thousands of others."

triva: Johann Gutenburg invented reusable movable type. The first book he printed was the Bible. Only 48 complete copies of Gutenburg’s Bible survived to see the twentieth century. One of three “perfect†copies is now held in the Library of Congress and the other two are held in European libraries.
The Gutenburg Project is a great resource on the Internet.
