Google Books in PDF
Wow this will blow some minds, especially over at the British Library. Google offers pdf download of out-of-copyright books.
Some concerns, though. The pdf format chosen is far from standard and it consists of a bunch of scanned images. This disallows format conversion or text extraction without advanced OCR.
One more effort, google.
