Founded by the inventor of e-books, Project Gutenberg is the oldest digital library. Its banned books collection is based on author and book collector Anne Haight’s “Banned Books: Informal Notes on Some Books Banned for Various Reasons at Various Times and in Various Places.” While Haight’s book was published in 1978, some of the included titles are still being challenged in the U.S. today.
