Now, the reason for my post . . . .
The Internet Archive has a great number of non-fiction books that I want. I love IA books because they are free. However, most of them leave a lot to be desired, maybe especially in the appearance of the text.
But, a number--though not relatively large in comparison to IA (especially considering all of the different editions that IA sometimes has of a single book)--of those books are have been cleaned up, etc., and they are located on other sites. Gutenberg.org is the site that first comes to mind, but I know that there are many other websites with significant "holdings," I suppose that you would call them.
What are some of the sites that you know of with the greater number of free holdings (I know that the Hathi Trust, and other places, have a lot of free ones available, but they also have a lot of ones with restrictions of various kinds; please include those, too)? There may be a place on the Web to go quickly to to find that information, but offhand I don't where it is.
