The Internet Archive (www.archive.org) is a non-profit that was founded to build an 'Internet library,' with the purpose of offering permanent access for researchers, historians, and scholars to historical collections that exist in digital format.
Founded in 1996, the Internet Archive hosts the largest publicy available web archive with over 60 billion archived web pages. Additonally, Internet Archive is working as the technology partner for National Libraries and Archives around the world to create web collections. Partners include the Library of Congress, U.S National Archives and UK
National Archives.
The internet archive is is a laudable initiative to spread culture over the web and it is also an artist's wet dream. The guy who introduced it to me also said that there has been a big influx of new art titles in the last few months- So you definetively may want to search for names like George Bridgman, Andrew Loomis, Walter Crane and Denman Ross and download some amazing books for free, in integrae.
cheers!
