In my log of books I've read, I always preferred to link to the corresponding Wikipedia page if available, then with fallbacks, which felt not great.

Wikipedia's barrier to entry felt unnecessarily large for what felt like small potatoes (basic book entries).

A few days ago, I discovered openlibrary.org (by the Internet Archive!)

I logged in with my account and began updating/editing entries.

This definitely feels like the right place for contributions.

Le #JORF regorge d'informations intéressantes. Déjà utilisé pour les films classés X, les taxes parafiscales et chantier en cours : doctorats honoris causa. Les mesures nominatives ne sont pas indexées, du coup voilà ma méthodo :
- jusqu'en 1954 : #Gallica
- 1954-1961 : #InternetArchive
- 1962-1989 : #Légifrance (tables analytiques)
- 1990 à nos jours : Légifrance (recherche en plein texte)

Check out this beautiful art book on the Archive! It was published in 1903 for students to learn basic brush strokes. I love finding things like this.

A collage of 4 pictures from the book.

The picture on the upper left is the front cover. It's a light brown cover with burgundy lettering. It says "Brushwork" in big letters. Underneath, it says "Elementary Brush-Forms by Marion Hudson." Text on the bottom right of the cover reads, "O. Newman & Co. London".

The picture on the upper left is the preface. It reads, "The following lessous in Brushwork are an attempt to show, by a series of typical lessons, how the subject may be taught to large classes in elementary schools. Most of the lessons have been successfully given to such classes, and the difficulties are found to be greatly lessened by the observance of a few simple rules. I have to gratefully express my indebtedness to my old friend and master, Mr. E. Cooke, to whom we owe the original idea of Brushwork as a means of education, for his kindness in looking through the sheets, and for giving me the berefit of his criticism."

The picture on the bottom left is a page from the book with a light red grid with painted green stems and blue petals.

The picture on the bottom right is another painting with the same grid of red marks that also look like petals, arranged in a big square, four small squares inside, and a cross with equal sides in the middle.

🚨 AKTUALIZACJA LINKÓW 🚨

Strona seditiontracker_com, która dokumentowała radykałów i uczestników ataku na Kapitol (1029 osób!), zniknęła po wyborach w USA. Domena teraz hostuje kasyno. Zaktualizowałem wszystkie linki do wersji w Internet Archive - nadal możecie przeglądać dane!

The image shows a screenshot from the Sedition Tracker website, which documents individuals allegedly involved in the January 6 Capitol riot. The page displays:  The "Sedition Tracker" title in green text at the top A definition of sedition underneath: "incitement of resistance to or insurrection against lawful authority" A "Most Recent Suspects" section listing three individuals:  Ethan Bray (with mugshot/photos marked with "CHARGED" in red) William Wilkerson (with protest photos marked with "CHARGED" in red) Peter Moloney (with protest photos marked with "CHARGED" in red)    Each person has images where they are identified with red circles or boxes, and all have a "CHARGED" label overlaid on their photos, indicating they've been formally charged in connection with the Capitol events.

Data Rescue Project: ERICA to the Rescue!. “Several volunteers and partners of the Data Rescue Project (DRP) have been working tirelessly for the last few weeks to back up the ERIC catalog and full-text PDFs.
