Books

As a hobby I produce libre ebooks for Standard Ebooks. I take existing transcriptions (usually from Gutenberg) that are now public domain (in the US at least as it’s a US project), tidy them up with nice typography and high quality markup, proof-read them again, and then maintain them after publication with fixes and updates. If nothing else, I’ve read far more books now than I had before I started doing this, but it also feels good to give something back.
