Question: Where can I find Online Books!?
I'm looking for an online book source!. I know UPenn has a free database, but many of the books are old!. Are there any online book databases that are free and allow me to download books!? Or even an online source that allows me to download or read books for a small fee!.

Thanks!Www@QuestionHome@Com

http://www!.booksonline!.com Through this link, you'll see many book of the month clubs you can join!. They all offer about the same thing when you read over the 'membership agreement!.' There is an initial $13!.7 shipping and handling cost on your first four or five books costing $0!.99 each, plus mention of sales tax!. You must then order either 3 or 4 books, depending on the club, within two years, and you're a member!. These other books are sold at either 45% or 50% less than the price the publisher asks for!. Read membership agreements to fully understand everything!.

http://www!.literaryguild!.com Is just like the book clubs above, with a nearly identical membership agreement!. This site is the one that promises a 50% discount on all books for members!.

http://www!.amazon!.com I think this site is still the best for finding books you can download right away or buy for very cheap prices!. Shipping and handling is always $3!.99 from any vendor of the cheaper [and good; clean] used books (unless you get $25!. worth of books direct from Amazon, then it's free)!. Amazon is a giant full of tens of thousands of titles, which makes them able to beat all others in the price range!.

*I would first call and ask my local public library what they have available for download on your library card!.!.!.*Www@QuestionHome@Com

Most of the books you will find online, like at bartleby!.com, will be old because they are no longer copyrighted!. You are not going to get current books for free online, because that would be cheating the authors out of royalties to which they are entitled!. If you work, you expect to get paid, don't you!?
Your library has all the books you want for free!. What's wrong with reading a book in print format rather than online!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Amazon!.com allows you buy online books!. If you look up a book on Google, most of the time you can read it!. Sometimes, though it might be missing a page or two!.
