The Castle Library at Rachelville has 36 new titles on the first floor of the castle... all set to "free to copy." Each book contains a link to a gutenberg.org or archive.org web page with various options for viewing. Many of the books also have note cards with complete text of the book. All have colorful covers designed by a volunteer.
Soooo... if you'd like a nice collection of book linkers in your SL library or your personal parcel please stop by and "check out" some of our books.... for keeps! We also have a large collection of children's classics on the second floor donated by the Caledon Library. They are also "free to copy."
Here's a SLURL for both the Alphabet Garden and the Castle of Dreams.
