To the secretary of the treasury (albert gallatin.) - The Works, vol. 9 (1799-1803) Baldwin Library of Historical Children's Literature - Special and Area Studies Collections - University of Florida Smathers Libraries. Children's Collections. Free epub children's picture books. These were created from the free books available as part of Project Gutenberg. Of all eBook formats, I chose the epub standard because it's open and well-documented, it makes good use of existing standards, and the FBReader eBook reader program can read epub files. Most importantly, FBReader is the only eBook reader that I know can run on the OLPC XO laptop. 20 January Anne Gentle has kindly written up instructions on how to download these books to an XO and open them up: Use the XO's Browse activity to download the epub files, then use the Journal, an SD card or USB stick, and the Terminal to transfer the files from the Journal's datastore to the FBReader's default directory.
While you could copy files directly from the Journal's datastore using the Terminal, the random file names are nearly impossible to use to determine which file is your downloaded epub file. (More details on downloading.) More notes follow the links to the books. UFDC - Baldwin Library of Historical Children's Literature. Public Domain.
