"side-loading" as opposed to "direct-loading"

Why pay BN when a classic is already on Gutenberg,
unless I want some special version because of its formating or illustrations?

Speaking of Gutenberg, he must be rolling in his grave,
when now we can have a whole building worth of books
on these small wonders!

Also, when I was studying at UC Santa Barbara,
they were just starting on the cartography portion of Project Gutenberg.
