Google has done a great favor to the readers by scanning books from public libraries and other sources for a number of years. So you have got access to a whole library of classic literature that you can read on the PC or on a number of mobile devices and eBook readers. You may find free books as well that are not public domain. But remember that not all free books are copyright free.
