Though I don't know how it works you should consider getting them distributed by Open Library (http://openlibrary.org/). And I am pretty sure with Google Books, you can request that the entirety of copies of books be distributed freely if the publisher allows Google Books (right now, most books are shown preview due to an agreement between Google in the Publishing Industry.)

Hello,

My organization owns the copyrights to some books and would like to re-license them for sharing. The goal in doing this would be to maximize the possibility of the books being read. I am aware that Wikisource hosts books and that anyone can download these books as PDFs and EPUBs. Here, for example, is Moby Dick.
http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Moby-Dick
I was thinking to share books through a Wikimedia project, but I am also interested in sharing them through other channels if that would get them to the people who wanted them. I am especially interested in enabling these books to be found and read on mobile devices. I wanted to ask this list some questions -
  1. Has anyone done this before?
  2. Does anyone know of a process for making this work?
  3. Does anyone know about making shared books available through many popular readers, including iBooks, Google Play's bookstore, and Amazon Kindle?
  4. Does anyone else have books they are sharing or want to share, and if so might like you like to chat with me?
Thanks,
