10. OverDrive - A Free Global E-book Library

Libraries are slowly coming to be perceived as archaic dungeons reserved for academics and pensioners yet to discover the wonder of eBooks, but a little-known fact is that many libraries have been moving with the times, converting hundreds of thousands of their books into the eBook format and uploading them into vast online archives. This means that you can borrow books from your local library without even having to physically go there, and OverDrive is the best way of doing this. The service is used by over 30,000 libraries worldwide, letting you rent books on your Android device and return them automatically without ever having to worry about getting a fine. OverDrive lets you place holds on books (though why you need to wait for a digital book to be returned by another person is anyone's guess), create wishlists and sync your books across all your devices containing OverDrive. This is the library revolution we've all been waiting for! Though you'll still need to be registered with your local library or institution to take advantage.
