Kindle Nation Daily Free Book Alert, Step-by-Step Tip: Amazon & Open Library Collaborate So You Can Send Tens of Thousands of Free eBooks Directly to Your Kindle via Whispernet
The process of sending any of tens of thousands of free classic books directly to your Kindle is easier and more seamless than ever thanks to a terrific new collaboration between Amazon and the Internet Archive’s “Open Library” project. As Kindle Nation readers know from this post last year, we were already able to download about two million Internet Archives titles to our computers for transfer via USB connection.
Now you can find any of tens of thousands of free ebooks on the “Open Library” website and send them directly and wirelessly to your Kindle. There are nearly half a million ebooks in the Open Library archive, but not all are available free).
The process is simple:
- Search for a title at Open Library. You can search by author or subject, click on the “More search options” link near the upper right corner of the page, or use the very cool Publishing History tool to see all the accessible ebooks published in any year in the past two millennia.
Click on any title that is accompanied by a “Read” icon like the one shown at the right, and on the next page click on the “Send to Kindle” link for any edition of the title, as seen at the right of the screen shot below for F. Scott Fitzgerald’s early novel This Side of Paradise:
That click will take you directly to Amazon where, after you sign into your account (if necessary), Amazon will show you a screen like the one below to inform you about its Whispernet personal document policies and fees and prompt you to select the Kindle to which you want to send the title. Once you click “continue,” the free book should be visible on your Kindle home screen within 60 seconds.
