Internet Archive: American Libraries

I have added a link above for the American Libraries Internet Archive. You can access digitally recreated books in full color and black and white. The British Museum, Smithsonian, University of Illinois and others have partnered to scan in (digitize) books. Books are available for free download in pdf, DjVu, plain text or the 'flip book' where you actually 'turn' the pages (based on software by British Library).

Have fun! Some of the illustrations are beautiful.
