May 2016
Two of the user guides on the Help page have been updated: How to download and read Oliphant ebooks and Tips for buying a tablet
January - April 2016
In the past all links to fiction works were external. But now the website itself contains a copy of each fiction work. The webpage for each fiction work does not look noticeably different; however many more editions have been added to the site.
On the page for a given work there are two sets of links. The left-hand link(s) download a copy of the work from the Oliphant website. In most cases this copy has been whitened, trimmed, and had any missing pages restored. Also with very few exceptions this copy is a first edition or virtually identical to the first edition in terms of printer layout. (For example a so-called "5th edition" is usually the 5th printing of the first edition. "New edition" would be truly a new edition.) The right-hand link(s) go to an external website, usually Google Books or Internet Archive. When possible these link to a different edition or different copy of the work.

(In August and October 2014, new links were added for those works which had not been available to people outside the USA. In some cases the links were replaced; in other cases there are now two sets of links. This action was necessary because some of the later-dated ebooks on the Google Books website are restricted outside the USA, apparently due to international copyright issues.)
