Managing a Library?

Shyriath, I think it would be really great if you could compile a library composed of any and all documents written by micronationalists, no matter how important or how trivial. We've got the space, might as well use it.
Find the file and I can upload it to the server where you can link to it to save on time spent uploading or posting, considering your current internet connection. :P
And I mean ALL documents. Go around each country and ask around. I'm confident you can find your way around from the MNN. Anything that could even remotely be considered qualifying for a library should be taken in. Deputize a few willing helpers if you like.

Hmmm... not a bad idea, that. There may even be some stuff floating around on MNN itself, they still have that publication forum, I think...

After pondering a bit more, using the Microwiki to store all of these documents would be very efficient. Create a category named the Micronational Library, specifically designed to hold important historical documents in their original form.

I hereby give this project the Antikaiserial Thumbs Up.
(Opposite of the Roman meaning--no-one will be stabbed through the chest...yet...)

An update... no takers yet. I tried a few micronations; now I'll see what posting directly in MNN gets.

At least you're doing something, which is more than a lot of the other Ministers can say.

Hi guys,
I'm from the Republic of Antica. Here are our documents:
Nihillalatschik Wulatenamen Party Response Paper - Foghorn
A Paper concerning the Nature of Micronational Government - JohanssFonnKlosso
That's all for now, I'll update this soon with my own stuff.
If you might still need any help with the management, I'll be glad to do it.
Yours Truly,
V.C. Vehendi,
Relations Officer

May I convert them to text since many people, including our most esteemed MoRE, have trouble with PDFs?

This shall be a most glorious library, storing so many documents! We must name it after something or someone great and wise--I Like the Grand Shirerothan Intermicronational Library of Everything.

Spock! Or does Vulcan logic not quite equate "wise"? Hmmm...

Alas, Hyperborea had a modest historical library, but it fell victim to the EZPlague. I'll see if I can GoogleCache or WaybackMachine it sometime, but I'm not hopeful. In the meantime, Treesia has some wonderful stuff on their website, albeit all Treesia-related:

How about the "Great Library of Airosamente"? (regardless of the fact that Airosamente isn't in Shireroth) That had been fictionally a huge source of ancient knowledge in the CoD series in Audentior.

@moose: Yes, do it, no problem. Just one thing, how do you do that?

Why not just the Great Library?

I'm pretty sure Acrobat Reader lets you cut and paste (Yes, most people do not know that the hand tool isn't the only too in reader :P), but if not, I also have Acrobat itself on my computer and can just open them in that.

Hey Scott - I'm pretty sure you've got your own copy, but you realize you have the enitre Book of the Orchids archived on AllPoetry, right?

Let's keep it simple... maybe one of the following:
1. Micronational Library
2. Great Library
3. Great Micronational Library
4. Galactic Library (because I always wanted to have one)
