The FONTLIBRARY (originally called the Open Font Library) is a project devoted to hosting and encouraging the creation of fonts released under Free Licenses. It is a sister project to Openclipart and hosts over 6000 fonts from over 250 contributors. These are intended to be downloaded, remixed and shared freely.
In May 2024, FONTLIBRARY announced the new tagline "Free Fonts Forever". Also, the project announced challenges with artificial intelligence overwhelming the project and a strategy for how to work with artificial intelligence technology and fonts.
In January 2024, FONTLIBRARY posted news that they have adopted Nostr for communications. Also, the project announced that the codebase is being rewritten due to the core technology Aiki Framework being in disrepair since the execution of its founder, Bassel Khartabil. A new logo is also in the works to mark the change. Also, the project rebranded itself FONTLIBRARY.
