I took a preliminary look at what they have available. They do have some fiction and biographies. Before we officially go with them, I plan to wait till they reach an agreement with Kindle.

We're leaning towards using Ebsco as our vendor. I have two questions I thought you may be able to help me with: 1. If you have e-books at your library, which vendor do you use? 2. Have you tried preloading an e-reader to check out to patrons instead? And if so, which type of e-reader? Thanks!
