MODERATORS
Made them free to access and download, if the book is in the public domain or under a Creative Commons license. Allowed limited access if copyrighted (through some weirdly legal solution where they technically "loan" the book to you while you view it in your browser), although that option has been partly limited in the recent years due to lawsuits by book publishers.
