How can I read or convert free e-books on the iPad?

I suppose I can read free e-pub ebooks and books from Project Gutenberg on the iPad, using the iBook reader. How do I get them in the iPad iBook Reader?

Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Project Gutenberg books can be added to your iPad, just like music. All you need to do is download the ePub version of the book, and drag it into iTunes. It will appear in a new section called 'Books,' and can now be synced to your iPad.

You can also add PDF versions of eBooks by converting them, or reading them in a seperate program.

LifeHacker.com has a great post showing how to put your PDF ebooks onto an iPad, so you can read them in iBooks.

Basically, your going to download and install a programs called Calibre, which will convert PDFs into ePUBs, which is what iBooks uses.

It's pretty simple, but conversion is not perfect.

Image heavy books might not come out right. For those, it would be better to use a PDF reader App from the App Store. I personally recommend "GoodReader for iPad."
