One of the problem with library, is that we've tried to emulate the "paper book". Rather than going for solutions that would work better for e-books.

I would go for something like : as member of the library, i can cheek out x book at a current time, and checkout x book per month. Guess the mess is some specific software / format for library book. Something to enforce the date thingy, without making a mess of the user's life.
Some people abuse borrowing paper books from library. So I really do not see the problem. And I do not see how they can abuse it in a way that they cannot abuse the current system with library ebooks.
