Google Book Search Offers Free Downloads of Public Domain Books
Sometimes I worry about Google, but I like it when they do things like this. "Since people can search the full text of these books, they can find previously buried information about historical events or people, places of interest and matters cultural or scientific. What has been tucked away in large research library collections and available only to a few, can now be discovered and read by people everywhere." Announcement, Google, August 31, 2006.
