I joined the DC library online today (find it on ebook lending library list).
It was free and I got immediate access after getting ID via email.

No it's not! At least for addicts like us.

The Fairfax Library lends out eBooks in ADE format and that works fine on the Sony.

Tell him (from a husband) that the trip would be worthwhile. There are some other libraries available. Unfortunately they, AFAIK, don't have the Sony format.

Oh & welcome.

Hello tcjuice and welcome to MobileRead. You have some super sons if they'd save up enough to buy the Sony Reader for you. My hubby gave me the lighted cover for Christmas and it makes it very easy to read in the car at night.

I haven't tried to get any electronic books from my library because I just have too many books to read. If you like romances, be sure to take advantage of the Harlequin give-away. I've downloaded a couple of their free books and will be getting the rest of them this weekend. Although I don't read romances very often, I like the idea of having a variety of books around when I want to loan my Kindle to someone.

Go here. There is a whole list of libraries that belong to the network. If you have any one of them, call!
You can also check out which books are available to you......

Cool.. and the road trip will give you plenty of time to read.

But, don't you need proof of address to get a library card?

I called the library and they said I can get the card because I am an Ohio resident. I just have to actually go to one of the libraries in Cleveland to fill out the application.
three hours is not that bad for what I am getting in return. Plus, like pilotbob says I will, "....have plenty of time to read."
