thanks 4 sharing..

 

I have here some scanned books converted to PDF (e-book) but I don't know if its legal to share. But I owned those books, I just produced some electronic copy for personal purposes. Is it legal to share it then?

If the books have a copyright that doesn't allow redistribution (which I highly suspect is the case), then yes it is illegal and I would ask that you do not post them up here on AAC. Incidentally, it is not illegal for you to make a copy in the way you state for your own purposes.

Rampart,

I know what your saying. You're not trying to rip anybody off. Here is a link I use a lot. Maybe it will have something you can use.
