The Library of Living Pragmatists offers guides to the academic careers and bibliographies of active pragmatists. With apologies to the Library of Living Philosophers (there is no relationship) this Library only guides researchers to the work of pragmatists. The Library is quite incomplete, as anyone familiar with present pragmatism would easily notice. This page is a temporary stand-in for a more thorough and useful guide to the work of living pragmatists, which will also include non-American philosophers. The Advisory Board for the Cybrary assists the webmaster in nominating more members of the Library. Send your comments and nominations to any member of the Advisory Board or to the webmaster.
