My library site hasn't updated with a Kindle link yet...has anyone else's?
Also apparently you have to go to 'Manage Your Kindle' to view status of your loan—no way to do it on Kindle itself (apart from using its web browser to go to MYK). I suppose this is the same with P2P loans, but still, it would be nice if this information were more accessible. Not that I'm complaining...
