Here's another answer to a question from a school librarian...now......if they had a Kindles, they would be registered to one account and there would be no problem sharing.......I wonder if BN thought this thru?

I work at a school library. If we buy a few nooks, will we be allowed to check out them out to students and faculty?

And on another note, is there a limit on how many times we could lend a particular ebook to a student using lendMe technology? Or can we lend it an unlimited amount of times, just not all at the same time?

thanks

Sorry for the delay, all.

Yes, eBooks may only be loaned one time, for a maximum of 14 days. If you lend a book but the person doesn't "accept" it, you may lend it again. But the limit is one successful lend per eBook at this time.
