    Default Google public domain library

    I am still playing with this - it first became operational about a week ago. Non-copyrighted material and public domain (usually older) books are available for view for free. (just enter "Google Public Domain works" for the link.)

    When I entered the key words of "frugality or saving money" it turned up about 500 books. I'm reading "Getting Rich Your Own Way" by Brian Tracy. The caveat: I can't print it out and some pages are not viewable.

    I think I will use the free material as motivational readings.

    I can't get this to work. Says I need to type in a search word, but there's no place to type it in. I'm in Google Print at:

    Keep us posted. Every time I called up a book, Google wanted me to register before perusing it.
