If we want a bigger selection of eBooks at the library, we need to band together to tell Overdrive to abide by their contract and if that means Kindle eBook lending via the library has to go, so be it. if Amazon really wants Overdrive library lending, then Amazon can help Overdrive setup servers that only Overdrive has access to without Amazon having any access. That's how to do it so it plays by the rules.

Personally, I would not mind Kindle library lending if it was controlled by Overdrive like the ePub lending is.
