Ask HN: Setting up E-book library is it legal?

1 pointluigivibal2 comments

I would like to ask if its legal to put up an online e-book library?

Could you be a bit more specific.

Project Gutenburg is certainly legal. So is scribd. But various shady ebook sharing sites are not.

Well what i want is to put up an online e-book library, like ebookee.org
