Hello Safranim: Two librarian colleagues of mine from Los Angeles have written a guide that is useful for those interested in starting or maintaining e-book collections: Here is what the flap says about it and where it can be purchased:
"Whether you have an interest in starting an ebook collection for your school library program or are working on enhancing an ebook collection you've already established, this handbook is for you. The world of ebooks is both vast and intricate. Exploring the many articles concerning ebook publication, vendors, devices, and copyright laws can be overwhelming. The authors of Ebooks and the School Library Program have organized their learning to share with their peers from several years of building ebook collections for their individual school library programs, and perusing ebook articles and publications, and also communicating with vendors and peers. This guide will help familiarize school librarians with ebooks and facilitate decision-making about their ebook collections in a rapidly changing landscape. The book can be purchased through ALA or Amazon.
