Welcome to The Ludwig Wittgenstein Project, a multilingual website that aims to make Wittgenstein's works available free of charge and with a free licence.
Wittgenstein's works are in the public domain in those countries where rights expire 70 years or fewer after the death of the author: this includes most of the European Union, Africa, Asia and Oceania, most Latin American Countries and Canada.
The Ludwig Wittgenstein Project provides complete, well-formatted, downloadable, free books: the German or English originals are available as well as translations in multiple languages, some of which were purpose-made by our team.

Thomas Drake: The Edward Snowden revelations broke when I was serving as chairman of the House Judiciary Committee. I experienced firsthand the reality that secrecy in the service of national security is sometimes necessary in our nation’s surveillance programs. Unfortunately, I also saw that claims of secrecy can be used by our intelligence agencies to spy on Americans without warrants and in violation of the Constitution.
"the government argues that upstream surveillance is too secret for Wikimedia’s case to go forward, invoking the “state secrets privilege” and claiming that any use of sensitive evidence to defend the case could hurt national security. In a split decision, a federal appeals court threw out the case citing state secrets."
På metadataområdet sker en kraftig utveckling som en naturlig följd av samhällets och mediernas digitalisering. Med äldre beskrivningsmetoder förmår vi inte hantera det ökade medieinflödet, och inte heller möta dagens mer komplexa användarbehov. Man kan beskriva det som ett paradigmskifte, ett "metadataskifte", en förflyttning där vi i allt högre grad återanvänder metadata från producenter av insamlat material, samt utvecklar nya automatiserade metadataflöden med hjälp av till exempel artificiell intelligens (AI). Skiftet handlar också om att öppna upp bibliotekskatalogen, att göra bibliotekens data mer tillgängliga för omvärlden och därmed öka möjligheterna till samarbete mellan kunskaps- och kulturinstitutioner, med förlag och andra aktörer som t.ex. Wikimedia.
