Opie Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Is there a nice free EReader that I could get? I would like a free reader that I can get several free books on for the children. All of the apps that I see costs. Does Nook offer free childrens books? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeaganS Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 (edited) Not sure what you're asking? Are you looking for an e-reader device like a kindle or nook that are free? I don't know any of those that are free. They all cost, like any technology. If you are looking for an e-reading app for another device, like iPad or phone, then both kindle and nook will have free books available and the apps themselves are free. Most books cost, but most Classics and some modern books are available for free. Overdrive, through your library would likely offer free books to check out and that app itself is free.

Hunter Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Kindle has free books. And I can "send to Kindle" and on some devices those documents will show up in my Kindle app. Sometimes some free eBooks obtained elsewhere can be sideloaded into a Kindle app. One some devices I have been given the option to send a book to the free overdrive app. It can do more than download library books. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Oh, and PDFs open up with any PDF reader. You can download PDFs at https://books.google.com and https://archive.org and http://www.survivorlibrary.com/?page_id=1014 Other free eBook sites I use https://ebooks.adelaide.edu.au http://users.gobigwest.com/rosegate/ http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Main_Page 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 (edited) Lots of links for books here: http://defectivebydesign.org/guide/ebooks You can pick up an old 32 bit laptop/tablet convertible on eBay or maybe your local freecycle or your friends' closet, basement, or attic if you're having hardware issues. .epubs don't need as much RAM/CPU as .pdfs but I have no trouble with .pdfs on a Lenovo X60 that's older than my kid.
