Following in the footsteps of LIL’s [Caselaw Access Project](http://case.law), the foundational dataset of IDI will be nearly one million public domain books, created thanks to the wide-ranging resources and expertise of the Harvard Library system. By prioritizing the assembly and release of open access public domain materials, as well as using [principles developed at LIL](https://lil.law.harvard.edu/our-work/librarianship-of-ai/) for approaching large scale data with a library lens, IDI bridges the gap between model makers and knowledge institutions.
