Two nonprofits are preparing to provide free access to 300,000 texts online. Project Gutenberg and World eBook Library plan to make the e-books available free for a month at the first World eBook Fair. Downloads will be available at the fair's Web site from July 4, the 35th anniversary of Project Gutenberg's founding, through Aug. 4.
