A quick web search finds Axis 360 public library borrowing to to be up in Seattle, Presque Isle Maine, Sante Fe Springs California, Delaware Ohio, LaGrange Indiana, Greencastle Indiana, and Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania. Maybe I missed a couple places, but I can safely say that their library market penetration is currently tiny in the US and zero elsewhere.
You could say that they've only been live for a couple months, so this is good. Or you could say that, given how fast things happen in the internet age, adoption is going slowly.
Stroudsburg would be a pleasant springtime day trip for us, so maybe my wife I should go up in a bit to see if they would give us (as Pennsylvania residents) a library card coded to this system. We don't own a handheld that works with it, but
maybe this will change:
