This info was just posted by the Webmaster of the Monterey County Genealogical Soc., it looks like it might be helpful for US Research (and maybe they will add foreign books too!!).
*Genealogy Gophers Website – Free Genealogy Books <http://mocogenso.org/2015/03/04/genealogy-gophers-website-free-genealogy-books/>* by MoCoGenSo Webmaster <http://mocogenso.org/author/mocogensojim/> A new genealogy website was opened a couple of days ago: Genealogy Gophers atwww.gengophers.com. The goal is to be Google Books for genealogy. Many respected bloggers have said it is a <http://mocogenso.org/author/mocogensojim/>good site, but it is so busy now, I couldn't get in! * Completely free. The site is supported by ads and "Google Consumer Surveys" - people are asked to answer a few market-research questions once a day in order to read and download the books. * Only genealogy-relevant books: 40,000 and growing. These out-of-copyright books have been obtained from FamilySearch, the Allen County Public Library, the Mid-Continent Public Library, and several other libraries. * Advanced search technology allows searches for people: the names, dates, places, and relatives associated with them, not just words. * Search results include snippets from the book pages so it's easy to quickly scan the results and find the most-relevant ones. The website is in beta. Over the coming months the search algorithms will continue to improve and they plan to add many more thousands of books.
