Google Editions will provide about half a million eBooks ready to be downloaded in late June or July.
The Amazon-like eBook store will give 63 percent of its income to publishers, while Google keeps 37 percent, Google's manager of strategic-partner development Chris Palma announced at the publishing-industry panel in New York on May 5.
Users can also buy eBooks from Amazon and Barnes & Nobles through Google Editions with publishers getting 45 percent and Google retaining 55 percent of the sales.
Independent book retailers can also sell Google Editions on their own sites, The Wall Street Journal reported.
