Bartleby.com

Another crown jewel available on the free web is Bartleby.com. Bartleby.com offers a breathtaking collection of literary and reference works, encompassing everything from quotation compendiums to poetry and short stories. It's divided into four main sections - Reference, Verse, Fiction and Nonfiction. The reference collection is one of the best to be found. Bartleby.com Has an extremely clear search interface. By means of drop-down menus you can choose whether to search the whole site, each of the four major categories, or each of the individual works. Extensive, elegant, easy to use and extremely authoritative. What more could you want in one spot?
