520			_a"Project Gutenberg (1971-2005)" by Marie Lebert is a detailed historical account written in the early 21st century. The book chronicles the development and impact of Project Gutenberg, the world's first digital library that aimed to provide free access to literary works in the public domain. The likely topic revolves around the evolution of digital libraries, the democratization of literature, and the challenges faced in the management of copyright and public domain works. Throughout the text, Lebert offers an insightful overview of how Project Gutenberg began with Michael Hart's vision in 1971, leading to the digitization of iconic texts such as The United States Declaration of Independence and The Bible. The narrative spans several decades, highlighting milestones such as the increase in available eBooks and the use of volunteer efforts in digitization and proofreading through Distributed Proofreaders. By 2005, the project had grown to encompass over 16,000 eBooks in multiple languages and aimed for a future of one million eBooks, reinforcing a mission dedicated to accessibility and preservation of literary history for everyone.
