Project Gutenberg Etexts are usually created from multiple editions, all
of which are in the Public Domain in the United States, unless a
copyright notice is included. Therefore, we usually do NOT keep any
of these books in compliance with any particular paper edition.
We are now trying to release all our books one year in advance of the
official release dates, leaving time for better editing. Please be
encouraged to send us error messages even years after the official
publication date.
Please note: neither this listing nor its contents are final until midnight
of the last day of the month of any such announcement. The official
release date of all Project Gutenberg Etexts is at Midnight, Central
Time, of the last day of the stated month. A preliminary version may

often be posted for suggestion, comment and editing by those who wish
to do so.
Most people start at our sites at: http://gutenberg.net
or
http://promo.net/pg

These Web sites include award-winning information about Project
Gutenberg, including how to donate, how to help produce our new
etexts, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter (free!).
Those of you who want to download any Etext before announcement
can get to them as follows, and just download by date. This is also a
good way to get them instantly upon announcement, as the indexes our
cataloguers produce obviously take a while after an announcement goes
out in the Project Gutenberg Newsletter.

Or /etext02, 01, 00, 99, 98, 97, 96, 95, 94, 93, 92, 92, 91 or 90
Just search by the first five letters of the filename you want, as it
appears in our Newsletters.
Information about Project Gutenberg
(one page)
We produce about two million dollars for each hour we work. The time
it takes us, a rather conservative estimate, is fifty hours to get any etext
selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright searched and analyzed,
the copyright letters written, etc. This projected audience is one
hundred million readers. If our value per text is nominally estimated at
one dollar then we produced over two million dollars per hour this year
as we released about 100 new Etext files per month in 2001 for a total
of about 4000+ etexts. If they reach just 1-2% of the world's population
then the total should reach over 300 billion Etexts given away by year's
end.

The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation has been created to
secure a future for Project Gutenberg into the next millennium.
