The Library of Forbidden Books

Hampshire Nanny · 01-30-2019, 01:26 PM

I couldn't find a better section in the forum. It's all about books, but not electronic books. The BBC recently aired a program about the library of forbidden books. "After the Nazis burned books for being ‘un-German’, one man made it his mission to preserve them for future generations." Mostly books published before 1933, I suspect most of them would be free of copyright very soon if not already, and therefore subject to eBook conversion.

View the program and read more about the approximately 12,000 books now housed at the University of Augsburg: http://www.bbc.com/culture/story/201...orbidden-books
