eBooks eBooks Everywhere!


eBooks are becoming easier and easier to find online. You can check out our collection of new and popular fiction and non-fiction eBooks and eAudiobooks through our website.

If you're searching for older books that are no longer under copyright, Project Gutenberg has digitized many books in the public domain. You can read the full text of these books online at their website for free. Project Gutenberg Australia has some books that are still under copyright in the U.S.

Google Books has also started a wide scale project to digitize books in and out of the public domain. The site allows you to search for key words or phrases within each book. You can read about the controversy this project has created in the publishing community in the article "Why Publishing Should Send Fruit-Baskets to Google"

If you want to learn more about the public domain take a look at this comic book "Tales From the Public Domain"
