ebooks of classic literature
The Complete Coradella Collegiate Bookshelf is a collection of ebooks, in pdf format, and stored in a searchable database, that is convenient, affordable ($29.95 for individuals, $299 for libraries and schools)), incredibly useful -- and fun to search -- for students, booklovers, and researchers.

Here's what one reader had to say about the collection:

>> Individual, family, and classroom licenses available.
>> We also offer library and schoolwide licenses

ebooks of classic literature

  • Includes the option to install the entire collection of pdf ebooks on a computer
  • Includes individual ebooks as pdf files on the CD can be copied to a PC one at a time.
  • Installs the Coradella "Bookbase" -- a searchable database of the text of the ebooks, that can be searched, for recurring images, patterns, and quotes.
  • Includes classic literary texts and historic documents that appear most frequently on required reading lists for college prepatory and undergraduate degree programs (click to see the complete list of works included).

  • Use the Coradella Bookshelf to:
    • Search for specific quotes (how many times have you spent an hour looking for the passage you want to quote in your paper? Or heard a phrase and wanted to find the original source?).
    • Discover curious (and interesting) patterns across texts. You can find out how many references are made, and in which texts, to anger, for example, or justice, -- or yellow primroses.
    • Read our screen friendly ebooks with ease: the high quality pdf format, using print-publishing grade fonts maximizes onscreen readability; Most ebooks force the reader to scroll through text, rendering onscreen reading cumbersome and likely to cause eye fatigue. Our unique two page fixed layout lets you use the Page Down key to "turn the page," and makes reading our ebooks more like reading a regular book. Click here to view our edition of Voltaire's Candide.
    • Copy quotes and excerpts to your papers (so you don't have to retype them!).
    • Print to hard copy.
    • Cite the pdf ebooks like a paper book - each pdf file includes page numbering that corresponds to printed texts.

Note
The editors at thewritedirection.net have carefully selected the works included in the collection from the American Library Association's reading checklists for college students and university course syllabi for undergraduate degree programs.

Once you see how perfect these ebooks are for onscreen reading, particularly for course requirements (our ebooks are not locked, which means you can print any of the pages, and copy passages you need to quote in your papers) we're certain you'll want to have the complete Collegiate Bookshelf for yourself!

The Bookshelf makes a perfect gift!

Each text in the Coradella Collegiate Bookshelf collection has been carefully formatted as an Adobe Acrobat PDF file, complete with page numbers (making it easy to cite the work for papers), hyperlinked contents, using high quality (and thus very readable) classic publishing fonts. The Coradella Collegiate Bookshelf editions are easy on your eyes, too, with a two page layout, and "static" placement on the screen that corresponds to the way a book looks when you actually have it in front of you. Our electronic editions let you use the Page Down key to go to the next page, rather than scrolling (one of the hazards of reading other texts on screen is eye fatique). When you open the first Coradella Collegiate Bookshelf edition, you'll "see" the difference electronic publishing craftmanship can make in the onscreen reading experience.

Of course, we all know that it isn't always the best idea to decide to read a book on your computer screen. But sometimes, it is very convenient to have the Coradella Bookshelf on your computer -- if someone at the library has already checked out the text you're looking for, when the bookstore has sold out, if you just happen to be a little short of cash and would rather not spend $6 or so for the print version -- or if you've misplaced a book you know you bought last year . . . .

Sometimes, too, your roomate, or maybe Mom or Dad wants to read along with you -- with our new Family & Friends License Agreement (just a bit more -- $49.95), you can install the bookshelf on up to five computers.

Once you install the Coradella Collegiate Bookshelf, the complete library is there, whenever you need it. And who knows? These editions are so very nicely done, you might actually begin to prefer reading them on screen.

And you don't have to worry about switching computers (visiting Aunt Sally without your computer, for instance) or an unfortunate "meeting" with a virus -- If anything happens to your bookshelf or you can't use it for any reason, we'll replace it, at no charge.

The cost for each of the editions in the collection is roughly 15 cents. That's pretty good, even for pdf ebooks, and you won't find ebooks this nice anywhere else. Of course, what makes this collection unique and really useful is, first and foremost, the design for easy onscreen reading -- but secondly, that these editions are all on one CD that you can install on your own computer in about 2 minutes -- at a really affordable price.

So why wait? Order the Coradella Collegiate Bookshelf today for just $29.95
