bs2k had created a Store Plugin for
Standard Ebooks here. However it had stopped working and was never added to the Index.
I have fixed it (with their blessing) and v1.0.0 is fully working. Now you can search for all your high quality public domain ebooks and download them right from Calibre.
Standard Ebooks:
The Standard Ebooks project is a volunteer driven, not-for-profit effort to produce a collection of high quality, carefully formatted, accessible, open source, and free public domain ebooks that meet or exceed the quality of commercially produced ebooks.
The Standard Ebooks project differs from Project Gutenberg, Internet Archive etc. in that they aim to make free public domain ebooks that are carefully typeset, cleaned of ancient and irrelevant ephemera, take full advantage of modern ereading technology, are formatted according to a detailed style guide, and that are each held to a standard of quality and internal consistency.
Each Standard Ebook features carefully chosen cover art based on public domain artwork, and is presented in an attractive way in your reading app or device.
Installation Notes:
Download the attached zip file and install the plugin as described in the
Introduction to plugins thread.
Special Notes:
Requires Calibre v5.0.1 or later
