- As I know it, Project Gutenburg is a project to get wads of books in
- electronic format on the Net by the end of the century.
-
- You might try the Directory of Electronic Journals, Newsletter, and Academic
- Discussion Lists, by Michael Stangelove (Internet: 441495@acadvm1.uottawa.ca)
- & Diane Kovacs (librk329@ksuvxa.edu); published by the Association of
- Research Libraries. The chapter of interest is entitled
- "Post-Gutenburg Galexy" by Steve Harnad. You might try to e-mail Strangelove
- and/or Kovacs for an electronic version of the text (rather than buying the
- whole book), or Steven Harnad himself (harnad@clarity.princeton.edu). I'm
- sure one of these people will be able to point you in the right direction,
- there are all prolific electronic publishers.
-
- Good luck, hope this is been of help.
-
- Charles.
-
-
- PS: Would you mind sharing with me any findings and/or conclusions you can
- make about Project Gutenburg? You can e-mail me direct at the address below.
- Thanks.
