The fact I learned is that Overdrive moved the HC books to a special section. I hope my library purchased no HC books this month!

Well, if you cogitate on what a library actually is, the dissemination of knowledge, then the attack on libraries has been in place since the creation of knowledge. But who would be against knowledge? Against the education of the citizens??????????????
Deletion of an ebook should be thought of as burning an ebook. If you're not doing it for warmth you shouldn't be doing it. |

I get really cynical whenever I read one of these Publishers trying to equate the "Future of Literacy" with "The Future of Our Company." Do these people honestly think that if the Big 6 Publishing industry crumbles, there will be no more books or stories? |

I think the statement made by Mr. president of sales for HarperCollins is wrong on (at least) two counts.
