Hi!

Today was the opening of the "World eBook Fair". They have a section of japanese literature that might interest some of you: http://worldebookfair.com/Japanese_eBook_Library.htm

Everything will be free for a month, so check it out now!

Wow, looks like it's possible to download lots of PDF there.

Anybody have suggestions for what eBooks to download ?

I can't figure out how to browse any of the japanese books aside from the "popular" ones on the front page. Looks like a good find if we can get to them.

ok, just search for "japanese_collection"

They are no longer free now, are they ? I bumped into a login/password dialog.

I downloaded some PDFs back then, but they seemed quite short, are those really the full-length books ?

I'm sure some of you are familiar with the English-language site Project Gutenberg, where works that have expired copyrights are made available to the public for free. Well, there's a Japanese site that is kinda the same sort of thing. It's called "Aozora Bunko" and can be found here:
