Several are open domain, some are community created etc etc. Several learning and interest groups & spiritual knowledge that is open domain.
There are tons of copyright free books available online as .MOBI files. Gutenberg type of sites etc. I want to make ePubs for use in MARVIN - CONSISTENT READING ENVIRONMENT.

My point was that many people WILL assume (because let's face it: the sharing of public domain and creative commons licensed ebooks in bulk is largely unnecessary). And since it's still irrelevant to the problem at hand (getting a bunch of ebooks shared from friends), why mention it and risk limiting the assistance you might receive?
I wish you luck. And as I mentioned above, the What's My Mobi thread (a few threads down) has a handy python tool for identifying the underlying formats of a folder(s)-ful of files with the various file extension normally associated with mobi and other kindlebooks.
