Contemporary Books in a Classical Context

We are building a series of CDs that include copyrighted contemporary works together with the full text of dozens of related public-domain books. In the best of all possible worlds, you wouldn't have to chase down books referenced in footnotes, and works alluded to in fiction, but rather would find them on the same CD or DVD as the main book. In non-fiction, footnote links would take you not just to the bibliographic information, but rather to the text itself. We're making one small step in that direction.
