Library patrons are going to be thrilled. <br /><br />My gut reaction to the 5-year limitation on ebook checkouts is that it sounds pretty fair. Generous, even. I respect that the publishers have to make mone, and selling libraries digital books that never get worn out and need to be replaced could be problematic for them. Today's ever-changing landscape of ebooks is definitely interesting.Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06628530227439660832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9166497432105189027.post-9922266903112217422012-02-13T20:46:47.430-05:002012-02-13T20:46:47.430-05:00>I believe that libraries are

When I saw the announcement from OverDrive it was written in such a vague convoluted way (as are all of their communications) that I couldn't tell exactly what you got for signing up. Apparently, not much! I'm becoming less and less enamored of Overdrive and their services as time goes on.3goodratshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10352969901692029558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9166497432105189027.post-23123907743504765362011-11-22T08:11:41.541-05:002011-11-22T08:11:41.541-05:00@Lari - It seems that only the Kindle version was ...@Lari - It seems that only the Kindle version was pulled. Since we purchase titles and they come available in whatever format is provided, we lost some service but not all, as we still have EPUB and PDF available. However, I do agree with you that the rationale behind it is not all there and we will have to see what comes of it.Kristihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00209813611833340226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9166497432105189027.post-43781184987296290262011-11-21T16:45:47.442-05:002011-11-21T16:45:47.442-05:00It is rather frustrating that after PAYING for the...It is rather frustrating that after PAYING for the digital items for library's collection, they can just pull the titles afterwards because they don't feel comfortable about something.
