Free downloads of out-of-print books

Google is taking a step forward in its massive online literature project. Its Google Book Search once limited users to reading texts online. Now all public domain books can be downloaded and printed--a huge step forward to anyone wanting to teach these works, study them, or perform them.

This is also likely to be a huge boon for students and researchers who can now find lots of old, out-of-copyright works and easily print out sections to file away for research purposes. It's also especially appealing because you can use Google search within the books to find particular passages or information. It's better than even the best index.
