Seventy-five eBooks from the Public Domain are Available at the DPPstore -- with the Help of Project Gutenberg
Project Gutenberg has made available thousands of classics available electronically. The DPPstore has seventy-five of them available in multiple formats…free and downloadable 24/7/365.
Palm Springs, CA (PRWEB) November 2, 2006 -- DPPpress (www.dpppress.com) and DigitalPulp Publishing (www.digitalpulppublishing.com), an eBook publishing and distribution company, are continuing to grow their online bookstore (www.dppstore.com).
The DPPstore, launched just ten months ago, features eBooks by new authors and the best eBooks from self and independent publishers, creating a virtual bookstore that offers an eclectic array of literary offerings.
Additionally, with the help of Project Gutenberg, DPP has been able to re-format and distribute seventy-five eBook titles from the public domain.
Project Gutenberg is the first and largest single collection of free electronic books, or eBooks. Michael Hart, the founder of Project Gutenberg and the first propagator of eBooks since1971, continues to inspire the creation of eBooks and related technologies today.
The mission of Project Gutenberg is to encourage the creation and distribution of eBooks. Because Project Gutenberg (P.G.) is powered one hundred percent by volunteers, P.G. is hesitant to be very bossy about what its volunteers should do, or how to do it. Needless to say, the organization is not in the business of establishing standards. But they have allowed DPP to create its own standards for the DPPstore. That way, DPP can provide enhanced public domain eBooks for their readers in multiple formats.
"Michael Hart's continual passion and energy are unstoppable," says DPP C.E.O. Genene Miller Coté. "We at DPP are so grateful to Michael and Project Gutenberg for their generosity in creating and spreading enthusiasm for eBooks."
Project Gutenberg is the creator of the World eBook Fair, which DPP was thrilled to be part of as sponsor and contributor this past summer, 2006.
The DPPstore offers eBooks from first-time authors to well-established experts. There is definitely something for everyone -- including a rewards program for frequent buyers. Titles that were once only available in traditional print, and eBook titles that once upon a time were not as readily accessible, are now available through DPPpress (www.dpppress.com) at the DPPstore.
The DPPstore (www.dppstore.com), a division of DigitalPulp Publishing (www.digitalpulppublishing.com), offers the best in eBooks from new authors and independent presses. Our eBooks are downloadable on an assortment of readers. The DPPstore – reinventing reading.
