Visit the Online World eBook Fair

The World eBook Fair will work to promote eBooks around the globe. From the World eBook Fair site, July 4th to August 4, 2006, marks a month-long celebration of the 35th anniversary of the first step taken towards today’s eBooks. 35 years ago the United States Declaration of Independence was a first example of hundreds of thousands of eBooks downloadable on the Internet today in a variety of languages totalling over 100.

The World eBook Fair welcomes you to absolutely free access to a variety of eBooks unparalleled by any other source. 1/3 million eBooks await you, all free of charge [as PDF files] for the month of July.

This event is brought to you by the oldest and largest free eBook source on the Internet, Project Gutenberg, with the assistance of The World eBook Library, the providers of the largest collection, and a number of other eBook efforts around the world. The World eBook Library normally charges $8.95 per year for their online collection, and allows unlimited permanent downloading.

During the month Grasselli Library will post news about eBook offerings from its online resources.
