The Creative Librarian is a hub for matters important to librarians/information scientists of today. There is a definite lean towards electronic issues, however it isn't restricted to only those. Hopefully this site will also be useful for informing non-librarians on these issues as so many of them affect us all.

Baen Free Library

Bean Books publishes a lot of science fiction and fantasy works. Since 2000, they’ve had the Baen Free Library up where they post electronic versions of some of their books for free in text, html, and pda formats. It’s not unknowns, either. They have stuff by:

  • Lois McMaster Bujold
  • Mercedes Lackey
  • Holly Lisle
  • and David Weber

The introduction by Eric Flint and his newsletter “Prime Palaver” are full of wonderfully practical views on the online piracy debate, for books and music, complete with responses from users and the actual experiences of content producers who have released material for downloading.
