Frequently asked questions
Can I search for books by William Shakespeare?
Yes! Use the search_author tool with the name 'Shakespeare'. It will return a list of his famous plays and sonnets available on Project Gutenberg.
How do I find books about a specific subject like 'History'?
Use the search_books tool and include the subject in your query. Your agent will search the entire catalog for titles matching that theme.

The current server focuses on metadata and discovery. You can retrieve the official Project Gutenberg ID for any book, which can be used to find the full text on their website.
