Planet PDF: Free PDF eBooks
"PlanetPDF brings us twenty-five popular classics in two different PDF formats: tagged and non-tagged. Tagged files are for those intending to read the books on handheld screens, such as Palm Pilots or Pocket PCs. If this is not you, you can download the non-tagged PDF files, which are smaller. This entry page includes the first ten books (from Dicken’s "A Tale of Two Cities" to Kafka’s "Metamorphosis.") To access the rest of the books, use the menu links in the right-hand vertical yellow sidebar."

Plagiarism: What It is and How to Recognize and Avoid It
"Why are citations important? Because without them we are guilty of plagiarism, ""using others’ ideas and words without clearly acknowledging the source of that information."" As promised by its title, this Indiana University site clearly explains what plagiarism is (with excellent examples) and how to prevent it. Of particular interest is the discussion at the bottom of the page of common knowledge (which doesn’t require attribution) and the difference between fact and opinion (which always requires citation.)"

Pitsco’s Ask an Expert
"Ask an Expert is like a Yellow Page directory of experts, listing more than three hundred volunteers able to answer questions from artificial intelligence to zoo keeping. Click your way through twelve categories to find your subject matter (for example, under Science and Technology I found seven astronomers). To avoid bothering the volunteers with repeat questions, you should first review each expert’s Web page, where you just might find the answer you are looking for. If not, you can email your question directly to the expert. Bookmark this site."

Penn State University Electronic Classics
"Penn State’s e-library includes original work published by the university, alongside classic English literature. The classics section totals hundreds of books representing forty-eight authors. I like the Penn State files because many of the books include illustrations, and instead of the usual 8.5" by 11" page size (which is good for printing) Penn State uses a landscape orientation of 8.33" by 6.25" which works very nicely for onscreen reading."
