Most public libraries have audio ebooks, and an increasing number are carrying electronic audio and text ebooks that you can download from a web site and use on mobile devices. I’ve been seeing many that have ebooks in the Mobipocket format. Below is a list of just a few.

Moipocket is a great format (much more usable than PDFs) because it works on the desktop, as well as on Palm and PPC. It also supports instructionally beneficial features like highlighting and adding notes.

If you haven’t visited your public library’s web site lately, check it out!

Also, my next mashup will be on audio ebooks, so stay tuned for that.
