+# Best Machine Learning Books
+
+This [git-annex](http://git-annex.branchable.com/) repository collates
+freely available online books on various sub-fields of Machine
+Learning.  It doesn't physically contain any of them, but rather
+contains references to original websites, from which you could fetch
+them using git-annex.  For instance
+
+	git clone git://github.com/datalad/mlbooks
+	cd mlbooks
+    git annex get *.pdf
+
+would fetch all the books available as a .pdf file.
+
+# Licenses
+
+Originally inspired by
+[12 Best Free Ebooks for Machine Learning](http://designimag.com/best-free-machine-learning-ebooks).
+Books themselves are available under varying terms.  The collection
+itself is made available under
