Tell us where are you from.
In USA there are quite a few libraries that lend books you can read using Sony Reader, PocketBook, or other devices that can handle files protected by Adobe DRM.

Tell us what you would like to read.
If it is older stuff - with Copyright expired, look no further. Scroll to the top of this page and click on E-Books link. Ebooks you find on this site are very often much better proofed and formated than the same Public Domain book from big-name publishers.

There is lots and lots of free stuff you can legally download from the net. A good place to start might be our wiki https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Free_eBooks .

Also check our Deals, Freebies, ... subforum at

If you are into SciFi you definitely have to visit Baen Free Library, and look up their Fifth Imperium CD that can be downloaded from the net.

By the way, there is no such reader as "Sony pocket book"
There is:
Sony Reader Pocket Edition (PRS-300) from Sony
and PocketBook 360 from PocketBook company.
See this wiki for more info

I personally would strongly recommend PocketBook 360. I own an older Sony reader and also PocketBook.
