German books in the publiv domain?

bkv · 12-28-2011, 02:42 PM

Hi, does anyone know of a source for German e-books that are in the public domain? (I know Project Guthenberg has some, and manybooks.net). My reader is a Sony PRS-T1

Regards,
Bjorn

Project Gutenberg Canada has a few that fall under Life+50 rules and some are old enough to be Life+70 if that's your eligible region instead.

And here are a short-ish listing of freely offered German PD ebooks at Ebooks.au's multilingual page (no direct link to each language; you'll have to scroll down or do a "find" since some are multi-language-hosting sites), and a longer list of links to German ebook and online literature sources at the Multilingual Books page.

And we've a good number of German-language classics right here in our Patricia Clark Memorial E-book Library. Just go to the search and type in "German" or your favourite author to see what comes up.

Hope this helps, and welcome to MobileRead!
