Free ebooks from E-Books Directory
April 19th, 2009
If you love computers (and you probably do if you're viewing this), and you love to read, then e-books were created for you. You generally get all the content of a printed book, but with the convenience of electronic data—compact, easy-to-transport, no dead trees. It's not always to easy to find e-books, and when you do, you may have to pay a pretty penny for the privilege (are you listening, Amazon?). It would be nice to find a free alternative.
E-Books Directory includes a library of over 1500 volumes, all available for free. They run the range from previously published public domain works, to technical papers and documents, to user-contributed content. And did we mention it's free?
E-Books Directory supports a number of different formats. Depending on the items you're interested in, you may be able to read your selections online using your web browser; some may be available in PDF format so you'll need a copy of Adobe Reader (or another tool that can open those files); others may be available in DOC or RTF format, which means you'll need a word processor to check them out.
E-Books Directory is a free online service.
Nice to have, but only minimally useful.
Given the existence of many millions of books out of copyright, 1500 online is hardly impressive!
More better is http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Main_Page, and it has been around for many years, and still growing.

its only link.
& way of advertisment to selling books.
Good evening,
I don’t understand why people are putting down this E-books website.
Sure, not so much as Gutenberg.
… But I am sorry, this website has very new texts and in many fields.
…Even 2008 documents…
I am not sure that all the comments are from people who surfed on it…
Anyway, thanks to the squirrels
This link is a “must” for me.
