Google has added a new feature to its Book Search program that allows users download and print classic novels and obscure books from the public domain — for free. The program launched Wednesday to give readers the ability to view, browse and read the full texts of books that are in the public domain. Google’s Book Search service offers searchers free downloadable PDF files of classic titles like Dante’s “Inferno,” Sir Isaac Newton’s “Principia,” and Aesop’s “Fables.” Searchers can also run keyword searches within the book text or print the books to paper.
