Berkman Luncheon: Aron Swartz of Open Library October 23, 2007

Thanks to new technology, the grand vision of a library containing every book in the world is now within our grasp. The Open Library Project, a loose collection of technologists, publishers, librarians, and book-lovers, has taken up this challenge by trying to create a website collecting everything we know about books — including library records, publishers’ blurbs, full-text and scans, reviews, and more. Learn about the vision, the technology, the progress, and how you can join us.

*RSVP is required, as space is limited. To RSVP, please send an email to [email protected] by October 22 at 12:00PM.*
