How Books Are Organized on InfoBooks

InfoBooks organizes its library in three main ways: by category (theme), by classic author, and through a special collection called The Project Aldus Editions. You can browse any of these paths directly on the site — no registration or payment is mentioned as required, and the books are described as free PDFs. If you already know whether you want a subject (like psychology or business) or a specific writer (like Shakespeare or Kafka), pick the matching path below.

Browsing by Category

Categories are the broadest entry point. Each one groups books under a theme and shows how many titles are available in that theme. According to the site, there are dozens of categories, including:

Other categories cover areas such as art, biology, chemistry, computer science, engineering, law, mathematics, physics, religion, science, sports, trades, children's books, horror, mystery & thriller, mythology, short stories, and food & drinks. There are also language-specific sections: Spanish Books (7 themes), French Books (6 themes), and Portuguese Books (7 themes).

How to use this path: if your interest is a subject rather than an author, start with the category list, open the theme closest to your goal, and browse the titles inside. The theme count tells you how much depth that category currently has.

Browsing by Classic Author

The author path is for readers who want a specific writer rather than a subject. InfoBooks lists classic authors whose work "shaped the way we think," including:

• Aristotle
• William Shakespeare
• Fyodor Dostoevsky
• Franz Kafka
• Sigmund Freud
• Agatha Christie

A "See all authors" link suggests the list is longer than the featured names. How to use this path: if you want a known classic writer, go straight to the author list instead of searching category by category — it is the faster route when the author is your starting point.

The Project Aldus Editions

The Project Aldus Editions is a distinct collection rather than a category or author page. The site describes it as taking great classics and typesetting them again, page by page, so that reading them as a PDF is a pleasure. These editions are described as free and requiring no sign-up.

Titles shown in this collection include:

• Animal Farm — George Orwell
• Hamlet — William Shakespeare
• The Great Gatsby — F. Scott Fitzgerald
• Jane Eyre — Charlotte Brontë
• The Metamorphosis — Franz Kafka
• Pride and Prejudice — Jane Austen
• The Prince — Niccolò Machiavelli
• Think and Grow Rich — Napoleon Hill

How to use this path: choose it when you want a classic title in a re-typeset PDF format rather than whatever edition a general category page happens to list. It overlaps with the author path (for example, Shakespeare and Kafka appear in both), but the emphasis here is on the reading format of the edition.

Which Path Should You Choose?

The site also states that new books are added every week, so a category or author page you checked earlier may have grown. If you want a recurring supply rather than a one-time browse, InfoBooks offers a daily email with one fiction and one non-fiction book, described as one email a day with one-click unsubscribe.
