Brian DeGraafFrom site: "One web page for every book ever published. It's a lofty, but achievable, goal.
To build it, we need hundreds of millions of book records, a brand new database infrastructure for handling huge amounts of dynamic information, a wiki interface, multi-language support, and people who are willing to contribute their time, effort, and book data.
To date, we have gathered about 30 million records (20 million are available through the site now), and more are on the way. We have built the database infrastructure and the wiki interface, and you can search millions of book records, narrow results by facet, and search across the full text of 1 million scanned books.

Moultrie CreekOpen Library is a project of the non-profit Internet Archive, and is funded in part by a grant from the California State Library. We have a small team of fantastic programmers who have accomplished a lot, but we can't do it alone! This is an Open project - the software is open, the data is open, the documentation is open, and the site is open.
Now it's your turn! Everyone can participate in this project, whether you're a programmer who wants to build on top of this data, a librarian who wants to add records of digitized books to her local catalog, or a lover of books who wants to make sure his favorites are well represented.

Julia Hengstler"Imagine books more as a networked object, rather than a single entity," she suggests. "We start with this kernel and then we see what we can pile onto it … it's a locus for all the information about a book that's on the wider web."

roberto marcolinE se ci fosse una biblioteca con ogni libro? Non ogni libro in vendita, o ogni libro importante, neanche ogni libro in una certa lingua, ma semplicemente ogni libro; la base della cultura umana.

Michelle A. HoyleOur goal is to list every book -- whether in-print or out-of-print, available at a bookstore or a library, scanned or typed in as text. We provide pointers to Gutenberg texts as well as Internet Archive scans as well as Amazon downloads or library borrowing.
The OpenLibrary project is an opensource project of the Internet Archive. This is important because the OpenLibrary project has many participants that do not work for and are not directed by the Internet Archive. That said the Internet Archive has been working to provide resources, such as databases, to the OpenLibrary project.
A major difference between OCLC and the OpenLibrary is that OCLC is building a catalog to share among libraries, while OpenLibrary is building a catalog to share with the public, with the hope that this will get more people involved in using libraries.
