Introduction

This is a listing of sites that legally offer free computer and internet related books, for reading and listening (audio).

All of these sites listed have content that is legal for them to distribute and for you to download and/or read.  If you find that any site listed is offering content that can not be legally transferred, please let me know in the comments below. 

Also, I would appreciate it if you would post comments about any sites that you like or do not like so that information can be added to the site's listing here.  This would help new users to decide which sites to try.

This list is not comprehensive and if you know of any other sites please post in the comments below or at our forums.
