Looks like some of these books are copyrighted, and therefore, not "free".
For example, I own this book: http://www.scribd.com/doc/9878/Mono-A-Developer-Notebook, and I do not know of any _free_ digital versions of this book. If you examine the bottom of the page of that book, you will see that someone downloaded it to a local filesystem, probably from O'Reilly's Safari (http://safari.oreilly.com), and then uploaded it to the scribd.com site, in violation of their service agreement with Safari.
