The problems with my library's ebooks is there isn't a lot of selection (at least in the genres I read). But I seem to recall there are some publishers who won't even allow their books on the OverDrive service. |
True but the library service for many folks has been far from ideal. I'll let the OP do some research and figure out what the problems are and how their service might be able to address them but I do think that such a service could work.
