About Open Milton

Who's Behind This

Open Milton was the brainchild of Iain Emsley and lives at the Open Knowledge Foundation. It was developed with the help of some dedicated volunteers with particular credit going to Rufus Pollock.

Get Involved

Anyone can participate in the Open Milton project – including you! For example you could:

  • Publicise the project to other communities, such as scholars and educators, to whom it would be of benefit.
  • Proof-edit and format texts.
  • Find related open material related which we can use. For example, texts of alternative editions, images, etc.
  • Develop your own web application or open knowledge package using the material and tools Open Milton makes available.

Just get in touch and we'll be sure to find something that matches your interests (and time availability).

Comments

If digging around in old texts isn't for you (and we know it isn't for everyone!) we'd still love to hear any comments you have. Just drop us a line at info [at] okfn [dot] org.

Donate

If you're feeling generous, why not make a small donation to help us pay hosting costs (we're a not-for-profit and everything we do is provided openly and for free).
