RAILS libraries may list giveaways or for-sale items, or post inquiries about wanted items. All exchanges are the responsibility of the participating members, and RAILS delivery service is not available to move items. We provide this listing service as a convenience for members and do not endorse any offer. Items are posted for two weeks unless deleted by the author.

In Europe and many other parts of the world, copyright protection expires 70 years after the author’s death.

LibriVox has public domain audiobooks that have been read by volunteers.

The Literature Network provides online literature, books by famous authors, author biographies, and literature quotes.
