The books selected by this process and listed here are not ranked or categorized in any way; the organizers have stated that "they are all on an equal footing," with the exception of Don Quixote which was given the distinction "best literary work ever written."
Izabrane knjige nisu rangirane ili kategorizirane na bilo koji način; ogranizatori su objavili da "su sve na istoj razini" s izuzetkom Don Kihota a ta se knjiga smatra "najboljim ikad napisanim literarnim djelom."
