Our mission

To make free knowledge easy to access and to encourage reading worldwide. We believe public domain books should be one click away for everyone.

Who is behind the project

Lecturas Libres began in 2020 as a personal hobby and passion project of Gianmarco Oliva Jimenez, a software developer with over 9 years of experience. The platform you see today is the direct result of that initial motivation and the dedication that followed.

Keeping the site running

The project is funded through personal investment in servers and infrastructure. If you find it useful, you can support us by sharing the site, sending suggestions, or contributing ideas to improve the platform.

Ongoing improvements

We continuously work on new features, performance and usability. Your feedback helps us prioritize what readers value most.
