Hey, OP! Did your game end in a stalemate? Did you encounter a weird pawn move? Are you trying to move a piece and it's not going? We have just the resource for you! The Chess Beginners Wiki is the perfect place to check out answers to these questions and more!

The moderator team of r/chessbeginners wishes to remind everyone of the community rules. Posting spam, being a troll, and posting memes are not allowed. We encourage everyone to report these kinds of posts so they can be dealt with. Thank you!

Let's do our utmost to be kind in our replies and comments. Some people here just want to learn chess and have virtually no idea about certain chess concepts.

What exactly is your project and how will the answers in this survey be used? Is this academic, is this a business?

I want to make an online library where people can download and read chess books for free because they are really expensive and not many people have access to them. So it would be for a charity.

Ah I see, how would you do this without breaking the law?

You can use really old books e.g. Chess Fundamentals by Capablanca as 70 years past his death and also hopefully get some donations so I can make deals with people to let me give their book out through it

There are some solid public domain options I’ve always wanted to see translated (Bilguer, for example). There are others that may be nearing public domain I’d also like to see, like Euwe’s Zurich 1953 book.
