My name's Julie and I've been running this site for around thirteen years. I format all the ebooks myself, as well as maintaining the website. This is an ongoing project that was born from a love of reading and a commitment to make ebooks that look good.

Notice

You may notice that some books on the site are no longer free. Over the past few months, donations have fallen sharply, and after much thought I’ve made the decision to charge a small fee for certain titles. This project has always been a labour of love, but the hours spent sourcing, reformatting, and preparing each ebook are considerable. Without some return, it simply became unrealistic to keep everything free.

I’ve run this site for 13 years, and I want it to continue - properly, sustainably, and with the same care it has always had. Unfortunately, there has also been a rise in people reselling my ebooks and even entire collections, which makes it even harder on a personal level to keep the project going as it was.

At the moment, only a few books have a modest fee, but over time (most likely months, it's slow going!) most titles will move to that model. I’ll keep a selection of shorter works free, and seeing as right now, 98% of books are still free, donations remain very much appreciated (and needed!). I’ll also continue adding new material. The recently introduced scanned-PDF section will grow as well; it allows me to share interesting books that would be too complex or time-intensive to transcribe, and these will remain free.

Thank you to everyone who has supported the site over the years. Your encouragement has meant more than you know. I hope you understand the need for this change, and I’m grateful for your continued support as the project moves into its next chapter.
