New eBook collection added!

We just added the Project Gutenberg collection to our OverDrive digital library shelf. From the Project Gutenberg site:

Project Gutenberg offers over 40,000 free ebooks: choose among free epub books, free kindle books, download them or read them online.
We carry high quality ebooks: All our ebooks were previously published by bona fide publishers. We digitized and diligently proofread them with the help of thousands of volunteers.
No fee or registration is required, but if you find Project Gutenberg useful, we kindly ask you to donate a small amount so we can buy and digitize more books. Other ways to help include digitizing more booksrecording audio books, or reporting errors.
Over 100,000 free ebooks are available through our Partners, Affiliates and Resources.
