A Good Summer Read -- Environmental Protection

A Good Summer Read

The Fourth World eBook Fair, a celebration of freely available literature accessible worldwide, will provide more than 3 million digital items from July 4 - Aug. 4. The selections include approximately 2.25 million eBooks, with a further 1,000 new items being added per business day during the month-long celebration of the birthday of eBooks. The eBook was first realized by Project Gutenberg on July 4, 1971 at the University of Illinois.

The selections are readable on computers, cell phone, Kindles, and virtually every other device for displaying digital content. New high-speed Internet connections and Web servers are in place to handle the vast response expected from the public, seeking free access to much of the world's great literature. And, if you seek something more technical to read while on vacation, some of the selections at World eBook Fair include:

Department of Energy (DOE) Collection: The DOE collection contains publications on energy information, addressing topics such as energy savings tips, researchers, climate changes, market trends, energy sources, health, safety and security, science, and technology.
Environmental Awareness Library Collection -- Assessment of Global Environmental Changes: An e-document collection of reports and research about the environment. This collection contains many of the primary EPA source reports that the scientific community uses to base its findings.
The World eBook Fair also allows you to search for more safety, health, and environmental documents if you don't immediately find something interesting.
So enjoy a good read, and let me know at http://www.twitter.com/ANeponline what good documents you find at the Web site.
