If you have a Fire tablet or a smartphone, you can download other e-reading apps to beef up your library, but with the E Ink Kindles (including the, the, and the ), you're pretty much tied to getting your content directly from Amazon. Well, sort of. Using a bit of free software, you can take ebooks in the EPUB, Mobi, and PDF formats and zap them over to your Kindle lickety-split.

Here's how to do it. Email The easiest way to put books on your Kindle is to do it via email. To get your Kindle's email address, go to using your PC's Web browser. Tap on 'Your Devices,' then choose the relevant Kindle from the gallery below. Next to 'Email,' you'll find the Kindle's email address.

Now click 'Settings' and scroll all the way down to the 'approved personal document e-mail list.' Click 'add a new approved e-mail address,' and add the email address you intend to send your books from. Remember, your Kindle needs to be attached to a Wi-Fi or 3G network for this to work.

It doesn't have to be your home network, of course; you can go to a coffee shop or a public library, for instance. Mobi Format Good news: If your books are in the Mobi format, they're already readable by the Kindle.

Attach the.mobi file to an email, send it to your Kindle's email address (with any subject, and no body in the email), and it should appear on your Kindle shortly. You can also drag and drop the file onto your Kindle if you attach the device to your PC with a USB cable.

PDF Format Amazon can automatically convert PDFs into the Kindle format, but you get two formatting choices. If you want your Kindle to display every page in the PDF as if it were a graphic, just email the.pdf file to your Kindle's address without a subject line. That will maintain the formatting and graphics, but the font size may be too small to read. If you're OK with this kind of formatting, you can also drag and drop the file onto your Kindle if you attach the device to your PC with a USB cable. Your other option is to attach the.pdf file to an email, and make the subject line 'convert' —just that word.

Send it to your Kindle email address and your PDF will be converted into a Mobi file, where you can control the font size and formatting. The graphics will still be in there as well, but you'll lose the layout of the original PDF. EPUB Format EPUB is a common ebook format around the Web, but the Kindle can't read it natively.

Calibre can reformat almost any kind of ebook for almost any ebook reader, although cracking the copy protection on books purchased from Amazon or certain other stores is forbidden.

Once you set up Calibre, click on 'Add books,' and pick out the free ebook files you've downloaded. They'll appear in the Calibre library. Now click on an entry in your Calibre library and choose 'convert books' from the top bar. In the upper right hand corner, make sure the 'output format' is 'MOBI.' Click OK, and wait until the 'Jobs' number at the lower right of the main screen goes from 1 down to 0. Now select the title again and click 'Save to disk.'

Pick the folder you want to save it in. It'll create a subfolder with the name of the author. In Explorer or Finder, drill into that folder until you find the juicy Mobi file within, which you can email to your Kindle or drag and drop onto it using a USB cable. So Where Do I Get Free Ebooks?
