<dt>What?</dt>
<dd>Unglue.it works to make free ebooks sustainable.
<br /><br />
We provide distribution infrastructure for free ebooks - we're a bookstore for books that want to be free. We're building a database of free-licensed ebooks.
<br /><br />
We help archive books that are already free, and we help readers find and download them. We help creators ask those readers for support.
<br /><br />
We run crowdfunding campaigns to raise money to make ebooks free.  In Buy-to-Unglue campaigns, the creators set a revenue target that triggers the free release of the rbook. In Pledge-to-Unglue campaigns, rights holders set the amount needed for ungluing, and if enough reders pledge there support, the book becomes free. 
</dd>
<dt>Why?</dt>
<dd>Most books have a greater purpose than just making money for the creators. In many cases, that purpose is best served by making the book free to read. And it's that greater purpose that drives us.<br /><br />
When books have a clear, established legal license which promotes use, they can be read more widely, leading to enjoyment, scholarship, and innovation.  By raising money to support authors and publishers, Unglue.it encourages the benefits of openness while ensuring sustainability for creators. </dd>
