Liberty Library App

Topic: Civics & Politics

Format: App

Impact Category: Building

We are developing a “Gospel Library App” for the liberty movement. This e-reader app will make advanced study of original sources possible for power learners. We are seeking to solve two accessibility problems: the writings of the Enlightenment and Revolutionary Era thinkers are difficult to locate, and they are difficult to understand. We are also seeking to solve the need to quickly locate excerpts from original sources and to study those writings in context. Users are able to upload text, documents, podcasts, videos, web pages, etc, and then use a powerful highlighting, tagging, and note taking system to consume the ideas that became the bedrock of American political philosophy.
