+<h2>Free Learning Resources</h2>
+
+<p>Free learning resources, like free software, is a matter of freedom,
+not price. It's about bringing the principles of free software to
+general knowledge and educational materials. Knowledge should be usable
+and accessible to all without restrictions and should not be treated as
+property. It is not an article of consumer goods that decays over time or
+wears out with use like a pair of shoes. Knowledge is a naturally abundant
+resource that improves with usage: the more it is used and passed around,
+the more it grows for the benefit of all. The introduction of measures
+designed to favor the ownership of knowledge, tailored to prevent people
+from accessing, using or sharing knowledge, is a conspiracy to inhibit
+human progress.</p>
+
+<p>These principles on the freedom of knowledge have always been in the
+spirit of the GNU Project. In 1999, it formally introduced the concept of a
+<a href="/encyclopedia/free-encyclopedia.html">Free Universal Encyclopedia
+and Learning Resource</a>, which was fulfilled by the Wikipedia project.</p>
+
+<dl>
+<dt><a href="http://www.wikipedia.org">Wikipedia</a></dt>
+
+<dd>Written in collaboration by thousands of volunteers from all over
+the world, Wikipedia is nowadays the best example of knowledge made
+available to and usable by anyone without restrictions. Wikipedia readers
+are allowed to copy, use, and adapt the articles, provided that the source
+is mentioned and that eventual derivative works are released under the same
+terms (see <a href="/licenses/copyleft.html">Copyleft</a>).</dd>
+
+<dt><a href="http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Main_Page">Project
+Gutenberg</a></dt>
+
+<dd>This project offers general knowledge books that are free as in freedom.
+It publishes plain text digital versions of public-domain works. If you are
+looking for a copy of a classic book, your search should start here.
+
+<p>They have a very clear explanation about the
+<a href="http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Gutenberg:No_Cost_or_Freedom%3f">
+difference between free as in price and free as in freedom</a> related to
+printed material.</p>
+</dd>
+
+<dt>GNU Project</dt>
+
+<dd>We maintain a list of <a href="/doc/other-free-books.html">free books</a>
+mainly related to free software documentation, and we make
+<a href="/manual/manual.html">GNU manuals</a> available online. All books
+published by the
+<a href="http://shop.fsf.org/category/books/">Free Software Foundation</a>
+are free as in freedom.</dd>
+
+<dt><a href="http://ftacademy.org/">Free Technology Academy</a></dt>
+
+<dd>The Free Technology Academy (FTA) is a joint initiative from
+several educational institutions in various countries. It aims to
+contribute to a society that permits all users to study, participate and
+build upon existing knowledge without restrictions. The FTA offers an
+online master level programme with course modules about free
+technologies. These courses are taught completely online in a virtual
+campus based on the Campus Project interoperability framework.
+
+<p>The FTA is a collaboration between the Free Knowledge Institute, the
+Open University of Catalonia (Spain) and the Open University of the
+Netherlands. A larger group of Associate Partners adds to the founding
+base with a network of organisations that share a common interest in
+offering courses in the area of free technology. The FTA is extending
+the current network of partners and collaborations continuously and
+encourages both individuals and organizations to contribute to the
+community.</p></dd>
