That is very good news. And, interestingly, they doing it without having to support Kindle format ebooks at Overdrive or in the Libraries. It seems that the Overdrive copy gets marked as on loan, and the Kindle format ebooks gets sent from Amazon's own servers, presumably with appropriate time-limiting DRM.

I hope it rolls out to the UK soon.
