Descrizione

I found a source of freely-available textbooks that are not indexed in OpenLibrary. This issue is to consider including their corpus in Open Library. Actually a short web search brings up several sites that announce freely available texts.

Tasks

There are numerous sources, I'm not sure which it was that I was checking out:

See https://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks, https://oercommons.org/hubs/open-textbooks, https://collegeopentextbooks.org/, https://openstax.org/,
