I wanted to read some books online in order to teach my students sharing depth knowledge.
Anyhow, here I wanted to share my one experience with scribd.com
I found it was giving 1 month free trial to read millions of books. Therefore I tried to enroll as free reader but after registering I was on the page where I had to pay$8.99 for a month.
That was fine that I paid the amount but then after I read some books, I was not able to download the books and even some pages were not shown for as a paid member. I completed one month, then after the$8.99 was deducted automatically. Then I stopped it doing process in the next month.
On this site, One can not download books, one can read online. Yes, some documents could be downloaded.
I do not recommend the site to those who wants free access. I recommend it whom want to pay handsome amount every month and who are loving reading.
