It was just a few years ago that Google started scanning in books and loading them on the web.  They have been very busy. Google is offering over 500,000 or half-a-million books that are already scanned  ready to be read by say a Sony Reader. This is all pretty cool. The books that Google is making available are books where the copyright has expired.  All books published before 1923, these published works are now out of copyright protection. Google still has a few to go. Looks like I need to go to Google book search more often, the only books I read are over 100 years old.
