You should also be aware that there is an enormous library of out-of-print books available online as e-books. Probably most all classic books (anything published before 1927) as well as many obscure works. The mobi format works on Kindle (the Kindle proprietary format is just the mobi open-source format with Amazon's copyright protection, so the Kindle can read mobi; epub is for Nook).
