Open Library is an ambitious project that aims to create "one web page for every book ever published." It offers over 1 million free eBooks, including contemporary and classic titles. Users can borrow digital copies of books through its lending program, which partners with libraries and publishers. Open Library's vast catalog and user-friendly interface make it a valuable resource for readers and researchers alike. By striving to catalog every book in existence, Open Library exemplifies the potential of digital libraries to serve as comprehensive and accessible repositories of human knowledge.
