Hey All,
Have just posted my first thread about this website in "News" when I saw this forum for resources...
www.forgottenbooks.org lets you download books for free and has this on their home page:

"We are in the process of adding all our 1,000,000 books onto the site at a rate of 5,000 per day. The total for today is 95,031."

So I thought people might be interested in it as a resource!

Thanks for the link. Looks like they got most of them from Gutenberg, but it might be worth a dig around.

Thank you for the suggestion.

If you are planning to use this website take in mind that you can download only 50 free ebook in pdf format for every computer. The ebook is generated after you click on download button and in the first pages of the ebooks it will be reported:

1. the download date and hour
2. the ip of your computer
3. the location from which you have downloaded the ebook....

To much in my opinion

Useless. They only do Mobipocket and PDF. No ePub.
