Mundaneum co-founder Paul Otlet's
147th Birthday
Before Google, pioneers like Paul
Otlet imagined a world where information was free and accessible. Created by
Googler Leon Hong, Today’s Doodle pays tribute to Paul’s pioneering work on the
Mundaneum. The collection of knowledge stored in the Mundaneum’s drawers are
the foundational work for everything that happens at Google.
