CT @ VT Daniel Kramer What is Project Gutenberg  Project Gutenberg offers 50,000+ ebooks to download or read online.  Michael Hart, the founder of Gutenberg also invented the eBook and designed this website to encourage readers from anywhere in the world. Fall 201 2014 Slide 31

CT @ VT Daniel Kramer Fall 201 2014 Slide 32

CT @ VT Daniel Kramer Features/Uses  As you can see, Gutenberg has a catalog, separation by genre, different languages, mobile site, etc.  With the amount of books the Gutenberg has and the resources it gives you to find them, using a data stream from Gutenberg could be very useful to college students.  When writing a research paper, in the English Major, finding excerpts from books isn’t the toughest thing in the world, but finding their exact page number and citation information could get cumbersome. Making an application to pull a book’s info straight from the website and cite it automatically would save research writers a lot of time. Fall 201 2014 Slide 33
