Engineering eBook PDF Search Engine

Although I advocate open access to engineering knowledge, I respect copyright. Thus, via this blog I have been hesitant to add many postings about free eBooks and manuals ... It seems every post related to this topic attracts the worst elements to my blog (i.e. SPAM and worse discovered via my blog admin interface).

Having said that, I could not ignore this resource, PDF SearchEngine.Com. I conducted many queries and found much to my satisfaction:

1. The service promotes legitimate links
2. The results returned are valuable
3. Like all search engines, your need to learn how to optimize it's use

Here are some sample queries and examples:

• Examples:
  • Sample Query | Sample eBook
  • LabView | Quick Reference Card
  • Lego | The Art of Lego Design
  • MATLAB | Crash Course in MATLAB
  • ProEngineer | Getting Started with ProEngineer

In each case I discovered valuable manuals ... often directly from a university or manufacturer. I've also added this search engine to the manuals section of the Engineering Learning Wiki.
