Category: Bookshelf

Project Gutenberg’s bookshelves are hand-curated collections of eBooks that have similar topics. Bookshelf listings were created by volunteers, and have not been updated since 2020 so there are many books without these hand-curated bookshelf categories.

In mid-2024, a “Browsing” category was added to bookshelves. These 64 categories arae intended to be similar to those you might find when browsing a bookstore. These categories were automatically assigned.

Another way to find eBooks related to a topic is by browsing the Bibliographic Record section of any eBook’s page. Most have one or more selectable Subject and LOC Class entries, which take you to other books in the same category.
