Hi,
I'd love to read some comments (pro & con) about making ebooks available in our synagogue libraries. I have several questions for those who "stock" ebooks: 1) Do you provide "readers" such as kindles/nooks? If so, do you make them available for listening in the library only or do you check them out to patrons? 2) Do you buy the books or do you lease them from a company that allows you to download them for a period of time? 3) How do you display the "books" so that patrons can discover what's available? 4) Can more than one patron check out an ebook at the same time? For a book club, for instance. Thanks for your answers and comments!
