Starting in 1996, Alexa Internet has been donating their crawl data to the Internet Archive. Flowing in every day, these data are added to the Wayback Machine after an embargo period.
And so, Bartleby.com�after the humble character of its namesake scrivener, or copyist�publishes the classics of literature, nonfiction, and reference free of charge for the home, classroom, and desktop of each and every Internet participant.
��Bartleby.com began as a personal research experiment in 1993 and within one year published the first classic book on the Web (Whitman�s Leaves of Grass).
��Since its incorporation in 1999 and the release of preeminent contemporary reference works, Bartleby.com becomes the most comprehensive reference publisher on the web, meeting the needs of students, educators, and the intellectually curious.
��I welcome you as a patron, encourage your thorough use of our services, and look forward to your comments to benefit the quality and selection of our texts: [email protected]
