Site record
Versions
This page records the versions of the site: each release, what changed.
- 1.9current16/08/2026
- Every scanned book on the site can now be searched, and every reader has a contents panel to jump by
- Seven books that existed only as scans can now be read in full, each with an EPUB: Nếp Cũ: Con Người Việt Nam, Cầm Ca Việt Nam, Ký Vãng, Gái Đẹp Xứ Bắc, both volumes of Cao Nguyên Miền Thượng, and Nghệ Thuật Ăn Trộm
- The downloadable PDF of Nếp Cũ: Con Người Việt Nam carries a hidden text layer, searchable like any ordinary document

- 1.816/08/2026
- The scanned books can now be searched: type with or without the Vietnamese accents and the words are found
- Three small buttons in the reader's corner: close, search, contents
- Search and contents open beside the page, never over it; Back closes an open panel instead of leaving the book
- 1.716/08/2026
