Dear Friend,

I founded the Internet Archive as a non-profit with a huge goal: to give everyone access to all knowledge—the books, web pages, audio, television and software of our shared human culture. Forever.

Together we are building the digital library of the future. A place where we can all go to learn and explore.

At the Internet Archive, people download 20 million books each month. We get more visitors in a year than most libraries do in a lifetime. The key is to keep improving—and to keep it free. That’s where you can help us.

The Internet Archive has only 140 staff but runs the ~#250 website in the world. We don’t run ads. We don’t sell your personal information. But we still need to pay for servers, staff and rent.

For the cost of buying a book, you can make a book permanently available for the next generation. Please consider donating $50, $75, $100 or whatever you can afford to support Internet Archive. It’s a small amount to inform millions. Help us do more.

Thank you.

Brewster Kahle

Founder & Digital Librarian
