KnowhowSphere is a website managed by Informatique & Bible,
asbl (non-profit organization registred under Belgian law).
Inspired by the expression, "noosphère", coined by Teilhard de Chardin (the level
of human consciousness shared among people in their quest for growing into the full
stature of Christ). Knowhowsphere also calls for a tradition of quality in literary and documentary research
with computers. That is our "Know-how"!
A version adapted to tablets and smartphones is now accessible at www.khsmobi.net.
The present website is devoted to serious and rich search on important textual
and documentary Data Bases with high added value.
Knowhowsphereis not one more "e-book like" offerte with PDF or another such format.This
kind of presentation may be usefull to display a page of a document to read it;
it does not give an opportunity to search seriously on the contents of a text.
Knowhowspheredoes not want to add a maximum of different texts or documents without
guaranting integrity of the data according to the sources and to the way of encoding
data.
Knowhowspherewants to offer texts and documents with high search value on literary
Corpora with controled and enriched data.

1. A permanent and dynamic Table of COntent, expandable up to the smalest documentary
unit of the Corpus.

etc.
