If I was on vacation and had my laptop and my reader with me, I could download the eBook(s) when they become available when I am not at home and unable to get to the library in person.
Also, I don't see how it would work with the DRM for ePub eBooks. The DRM is tied to my Adobe account which is on my computer.
I do have a ay to make it work. Overdrive would have to write software to read the authorization information on my device and use that to handle the DRM. Then as long as people were able to plug in their device, into the library computer, the eBooks could be handled.
But the point of eBooks is being able to download them from anyplace I have internet access and a device to download them to.
