One of the greatest things about getting your new eReader is that you can now take advantage of the many free eBook downloads available on the world wide web! If you are new to the world of eReaders and eBooks then here is a quick guide to getting your hands on the books.

If You Own A Kindle

Those who own a Kindle, or are thinking of getting one, should know about the ability it has to connect to the Kindle store and download eBooks in Kindle format. These are generally priced slightly lower than physical books, though you can sort the store to display from low prices to high ones and you can find many free eBooks right there! This won’t work for those who don’t have a Kindle.

Finding Free eBook Downloads in Compatible Formats

You’ll need to check exactly which formats your particular eBook reader can support, but there should be many options for you as long as your reader supports some of the most popular formats (ePub, PDF and others).

One of the easiest places to start is with Project Gutenberg (http://www.gutenberg.org/) or Google Books (http://books.google.com/). These provide eBooks that are completely free since their copyright has expired. This means you are free to download and enjoy them on their eReader, and many of them are even available in the popular ePub format which most of the modern eBook readers support.
