Visit our off site Knol Library at KnolLibrary.org
Knol today is a giant non-traditional public library, the largest ever built by mankind. But most of the library's shelves are empty or nearly so. To achieve that goal Knol authors need to help Google configure the Knol Library to become a linked series of specialized academic discipline libraries along with a large public library for general audiences.
That is what we are attempting to do with the Knol Author Foundation
A library has many books on different subjects. Some are very broad in nature and useful and informative to many readers. Other are specialized in a specific field and and have a smaller reader base. Still others may not be as high quality and are read by few readers.
Just as in a library, you don't throw out what is not considered top rate. The library is a mixture of everthing. The choice is there to pick what interests you.

English- English is a West Germanic language that developed in England and south-eastern Scotland during the Anglo-Saxon era. It is a language related to Dutch, Frisian and German with much of it deriving from French, Latin, Greek and many other languages. Approximately 341 million people speak English as a native language and a further 267 million speak it as a second language in over 104 countries. [59] English belongs to the Indo-European family of languages and is therefore related to most other languages spoken in Europe and western Asia from Iceland to India. The parent tongue, called Proto-Indo-European, was spoken about 5,000 years ago by nomads believed to have roamed the southeast European plains. Germanic, one of the language groups descended from this ancestral speech, is usually divided by scholars into three regional groups: East (Burgundian, Vandal, and Gothic, all extinct), North (Icelandic, Faeroese, Norwegian, Swedish, Danish), and West (German, Netherlandic [Dutch and Flemish], Frisian, English).
