The Internet Archive has a wealth of collections and this one is voluminous in every sense of the word. Formerly known as Open Source Books, the Community Texts section contains over 483,000 items contributed by libraries from all over the world. Visitors can look over books in dozens of languages, including Czech, French, German, and Hebrew. First-time visitors might wish to read through the Staff Picks, which contain ancient classic texts from before 400 BC and the poetical works of Oliver Wendell Holmes. Visitors can also click on any of the Most Downloaded Items to get a sense of what others are reading.
