Hi
We finally have generated new offline versions of the famous Gutenberg
project library which has almost 60.000 free ebooks. See
https://www.gutenberg.org/.
This version provides of course more books than ever before, but also
fixes many bugs which were impacting the scrapper or the user interface.
We have extended the number of UI supported languages and fulltext
search is now provided natively with Kiwix - no need to compute an
external fulltext index.
The offline versions are available like usual in the ZIM format. More
details about the ZIM format and the openZIM project at
http://www.openzim.org/
You can easily download one ZIM file with all the Gutenberg project
books in all languages:
* via HTTP:
https://download.kiwix.org/zim/gutenberg_mul_all.zim
* via BitTorrent:
https://download.kiwix.org/zim/gutenberg_mul_all.zim.torrent
* Language specific files at
https://download.kiwix.org/zim/
* rsync or FTP are also supported.
These ZIM files are readable wherever you want and on almost all kinds
of devices thanks the multiple Kiwix ports, pick yours at
http://www.kiwix.org/ or on your preferred app store.
If you are curious and want just to have a look, please visit your
library at
https://library.kiwix.org/gutenberg_mul_all_2018-10/.
For tech people, all the scrapper is open source and maintained. Join us:
