Has anyone done a special focus on freely available works?

There's obviously places like Standard Ebooks that do public domain stuff, but I noticed the first book on their list was:

Which can be read on the web here:

And downloaded as a PDF here:

Obviously the point of Shadow Libraries or Open Library is to cover all books, but it feels like there's possibly room for a specific focus on books that are available legally.
