Borrowing library eBooks

I finally got this to work on my EZ Reader. Frankly, I am not sure what I did but the device will let me download and read Adobe DRM-protected ePubs from my library's Overdrive system. I just started reading T. Jefferson Parker's Edgar-winning novel, California Girl. Our library system in Oregon currently has over 6,200 titles to lend in various major fiction and non-fiction categories and they generally are not obscure or out-of-print books either. They are all ePubs so no Kindles are allowed. If anything, the borrowing process is easier than buying from an online bookseller. A local merchant in Portland used to have periodic promotional giveaways. His slogan was: "Free is a very good price." That sure holds for borrowing e-books from the library. Check it out.
