Distributed Proofreaders Canada (DP Canada) is a volunteer organization that converts books into digital format and releases them as public domain books in formats readable by electronic devices. It was launched in December 2007 and as of 2020 has published about 4,600 books. Books that are released are stored on a book archive called Faded Page. While its focus is on Canadian publications and preserving Canadiana, it also includes books from other countries as well. It is modelled after Distributed Proofreaders, and performs the same function as similar projects in other parts of the world such as Project Gutenberg in the United States and Project Gutenberg Australia.

  • Distributed Proofreaders Canada (DP Canada) ist eine Organisation, die Bücher in digitale Form bringt und die Texte dann als Gemeingut zur Verfügung stellt. Die digitalisierten Bücher werden in Formaten herausgegeben, die im Internet bzw. mit einem E-Book-Reader lesbar sind. DP Canada unterhält zudem ein eigenes Online-Archiv mit Namen Faded Page. Die Organisation wurde im Dezember 2007 gegründet und hat in der Zwischenzeit mehr als 2.600 Bücher herausgebracht (Stand 2017). Der Schwerpunkt liegt bei kanadischen Publikationen, aber Texte von britischen und US-Autoren sind gut vertreten. (de)
