I have bought ebooks to donate to my local library.
The process is:
1. Email your local library.
2. Tell them you'd like to donate X money for A, B, C, & D ebook titles.
3. They will check and see if the titles are available on Overdrive, and what the prices are.
4. The prices will be higher for them than they are for you on any other site (Amazon, B&N, Sony, etc.). You will write a larger check or discard D title from your plan.
It's a very fulfilling process. I highly recommend it.
