If I were a librarian wanting to loan ereaders, I'd be looking into buying refurbed Nooks from B&N on ebay and buying ebooks from B&N and sideloading them onto all of the Nooks. Unlike the Kindle and Adobe DRM, the B&N DRM doesn't need to go to a DRM server to unlock the books, and there's no hard limit to the number of Nooks on which the ebooks can be loaded.
