Of course the real problem would be getting money from reluctant replacers without resorting to the expense of a collections agency.

One of the library systems in my region has been loaning out Kindles under much the same terms since mid-2010. It seems to be working out for them, though there's an incredibly long hold line-up on the things.
Huh? Why loan out Kindles when Kindles don't support the epub digital library book format?
