Archives & Digital Libraries

- Internet Archive
- has millions of public domain books, and there's also Open Library, a project of Internet Archive, they have a bunch of borrowable books that are more "recent", I find a lot of 50s/60s/70s YA & childrens books here. Borrowable with a free account.

For specific collections on Internet Archive I recommend...
- UCLA Children's Book Collection (large collection of antique childrens books)
