Charlie,
You could also look into Harvard’s Loeb Digital Classic Library.

Hi Charlie,

Look into EBSCO. They have a Arts and Humanities collection that features a classical literature section. They can probably send you a title list. Let me know if this helps.

Thank you,

Hi All,

I’m wondering if there’s a literature ebook collection that includes classic literary works (some could be in the public domain, others still under copyright) such as novels, plays, poetry, etc. The kind of literary works assigned to students in English literature classes.

It would need to meet the following criteria:
-no digital rights management
-PDF downloads
-unlimited simultaneous users
-perpetual access
-one time purchase

If anyone knows of something like this that exists, please let me know!

Thanks in advance.
