Table of Contents of Books

A storage for table of contents of books.

In order to avoid copyright infringement, I try to ensure that the scope of quotations comply with the law and social conventions (Japanese copyright law practice interprets the table of contents of almost all books as exempt from copyright). Please let me know if there are any problems.

Pull requests and any suggestions for improvement are also welcome.

Directory structure

Typical structure is

category
└── sub-category
    └── language
        └── 'title, author, publication year'.txt

For instance,

data
├── math
│   ├── algebra
│   │   ├── eng
│   │   └── ja
│   ├── calculus
│   │   ├── eng
│   │   └── ja
..............
├── statistics
│   ├── bayesian
│   │   ├── eng
│   │   └── ja
│   ├── causal_inference
│   │   ├── eng
│   │   └── ja

File format

Name

The file name should be detailed enough to easily identify the book.

• File name should include

  • (Required): title, author, publication year
  • (Optional): edition, publisher, etc.

• Example of file name

  • (OK): Abstract Algebra, Dummit and Foote, 2003
  • (NG): Abstract Algebra, 3rd edition, 2003 (<- probably identifies the book but not so obvious.)

Contents

• Only the table of contents should be listed.
• One line represents one headline
• Page numbers are nice to have
• Elements should be separated by single space
• No indentation
