First, check with your library and make sure that they have the books that you want in e-book format. If not, start looking for where you can go to get the books you want. E-books at the library is a pretty new thing and many folks have reported their libraries not having the best selection. You may find that the selection is not to the point where you want to invest in an E-reader.

If you do find that you want one, I would say get a Nook. It is less expensive and has a better book store then the Sony. Yes, you are getting it for library use but you could find that you start buying books and you may as well have a reader that allows that to happen.
