In the 90s my husband and I used to describe the World Wide Web to newbies as “The world’s biggest library with the pages strewn about the floor.”

My blogroll lists two sites offering impressive collections of free e-Books and scanned versions of printed books.

The Burgomeister’s Books

Of course, we’re talking about ebooks… my ebooks. My personal backups.
But since you’ve dropped by, I’m happy to lend them to you.
Naturally you’ll delete these books when you’ve finished - your way of returning them.

Download and enjoy five truly free e-books on loan from my library!


Captain Marginal’s Digital Library Aiwazzsaying
offers up rare and esoteric works.

Explore other online resources through your local (brick-and-mortar) library - many offer their card holders free access to e-books, journal archives, and online news archives. Ask your reference librarian for help.

I’m conjuring up one of these netbooks for myself.
All these eBooks can be read on a 3-pound, 8-inch wide netbook that I can fit in my purse. Mine will show up in the mail any day now.
