Using Project Gutenberg, I chose the following book to look at:
http://www.gutenberg.org/files/1400/1400-h/1400-h.htm
I found this site easy to use. I think that my students would find the site easy to use, but not many of them would really have a use for it. Most of my students come from low income families, who don't have computers at home much less e-readers. I feel that if they wanted to search this site for books that I would be able to help them. I would use this site personally if I had an E-reader, but even though the HTML version was easy to read, I don't enjoy reading on the computer.
Ereaders have become a hot topic in my district and some of the libraries have purchased ebooks, I'm just not ready to make this leap with so few students owning Ereaders.
