The Sheet Music Consortium is a group of libraries working toward the goal of building an open collection of digitized sheet music using the Open Archives Initiative:Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI:PMH).
An updated list of sites that offer free public domain books (ebooks and audiobooks) that you can download and use legally. Project Gutenberg, Europeana, DPLA, Internet Archive, Feedbooks, Open Library, and more.
This brief manual provides useful suggestions for today's authors. The goal is to "foster the greatest good to the greatest number of people."1 If this note is useful to you, please tell your friends about it. If you follow most of these rules, the probability of achieving tenure or promotion may increase significantly. If most authors acquired the basic skills mentioned here, they would then be competing in terms of the beauty of their ideas, not in terms of cosmetic skills.
