Now i'm not associated with gutenberg in any form, but they do have a page for offline consumption:

https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/offline_catalogs.html

Perhaps you can find the information you are looking for there.

However if you plan on scraping or otherwise hitting them with a ton of traffic, consider at least to donate a good amount for the traffic you cause them. It ain't free after all.

Check out https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/offline_catalogs.html

Don't hit the site with agent. The section furtherst bottom machine readable.

Thanks for the answers! Found it:

> All Project Gutenberg metadata are available digitally in the XML/RDF format. This is updated daily (other than the legacy format mentioned below). Please use one of these files as input to a database or other tools you may be developing, instead of crawling or roboting the website.

And strongly consider a donation! (My addition)

Possibly ZIMs is of interest: <https://ebookfoundation.org/openzim.html> (via: <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48152200>).

if what you want is all the text, please use the tarball or data files at https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/feeds

not yet, but that's not a bad idea imo. Dealing with Ai crawler traffic is definitely a challenge if that's what you were referring to.

OPDS?
