Matt Smolka,
    In sending out an e-mail to our students, I've included links our
public library's webpage that offers that site as well as a few others:
Project Gutenberg, Librovox (audiobooks), and e-Read Illinois (for which
kids in our district would need a library card.)
    Also, I've included the link to DigiLibraries, whose books are
chrombook-compatible.

     Best wishes!
