Another library option exists through netlibrary. It's accessed through your local library and delivers books as HTML pages. This works well for me on the iPad whereas it was a pain on a laptop. The text can be expanded to force the left navigation controls off the screen, allowing the text to fill the screen. A next button on the top of the page works to see the next page and safari maintains the zoom from the previous page. On wifi it approximates an ebook experience. Netlibrary has thousands of books including many computer topics including programming, Photoshop, networking, etc. If your local library offers it's services, try it and you may find it surprisingly useable. Los Angeles public library provides it. There's no drm because it's served as web pages.
