The Self-Publishing Press has thousands of eBooks from contemporary
authors, on many topics. New books are always welcome!
Recently, the Press has been improved to link in encyclopedia entries
and other discovery tools for authors, titles and subjects. This adds
some great ways to navigate, browse and discover books. It also
brings additional third-party content right to the search page, which
can be helpful for students and others seeking additional information.
In our September 2014 newsletter, we wrote about the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP). This is an international initiative, being negotiated in secret, which will have far-reaching impacts in many areas of trade, copyright, and more.
We urge all fans of Project Gutenberg to learn about this initiative, and speak with lawmakers and others about your concerns. Spread the word to your friends and family, who might not be aware of the downward pressure on wages and job security that the TPP would bring about.

Anniversary of “Alice”
Thanks to Christina Heal, who reminded us that 2015 will be the 150th
anniversary of Alice in Wonderland. There will be lots of rereleases.
Your humble newsletter editor (Greg N.) remembers the first eBook he
ever heard of: It was sometime in 1987 or so, while I was a student
at SUNY Albany. My friend emailed me a copy of the “Millenium
Fulcrum” edition of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, which became
Project Gutenberg’s eBook #11:
