Example use cases
Historical primary source research
“I'm researching Tudor England — can you pull up to 50 books from the DA public-domain shelf so I can see what diaries, letters, and historical accounts are available?”
Browsing classic English memoir collections
“Show me the top 20 books from the DA curated shelf on library.forgemesh.io — I want to explore classic English diaries and memoir-style texts for a reading list.”
Building a public domain reading curriculum
“Can you fetch the full list of books from the DA shelf — up to 50 titles — so I can pick out historical English primary sources for a history course reading list?”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://library.forgemesh.io/daWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to browse or enumerate public-domain books specifically within the 'DA' subject category — covering historical diaries, letters, and primary English sources — rather than performing a full-text keyword search across the entire corpus. Prefer this over the full-text search endpoint when you want a curated shelf overview rather than passage-level retrieval, and over sibling shelves when your interest is specifically DA-classified works like Pepys' Diary or Henry VIII correspondence.
Side effects
- Limit parameter exceeds 50 — likely returns an error or defaults to max
- Request with no body returns default 20 results
- Network or payment failure (x402) prevents access
- Shelf may return fewer than requested results if fewer than 'limit' books exist in index
