Book Search
Writers who are also book lovers need many different tools to search online. This group of recommendations comes from Project Gutenberg. They are for finding paper books:
Advanced Book Exchange
Alibris
Trussel BookSearch
Library of Congress Catalog
Project Gutenberg is the oldest (since the 1970s!) source of free US public domain material. It claims over 12,000 "ebooks" and also offers CD and DVD images, audio ebooks, and digitized sheet music. I subscribed to the RSS feed to see the current offerings and quickly accessed a plain text version of a hilarious tract on metaphors first published by the the Society for Pure English in the 1920s. It was amusing to read along with Lynne Truss' recent swipe at English writers.
