The Palace Project is a robust suite of content, services, and tools for the delivery of ebooks, audiobooks, and other digital media to benefit public libraries and their patrons. Funded by a $5 million investment from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, The Palace Project is a division of Lyrasis, working in strategic partnership with Digital Public Library of America (DPLA). The Palace platform was initially sourced from the Library Simplified platform, an open-source code base originally designed and developed by the New York Public Library.
