I'd say holland won't be listed yet, because according to the news, http://www.biblion.nl is going to develop a new portal for the libraries. If it doesn't exist yet, it shouldn't be listed anyway.

According to the news, the lending out of ebooks will be the same as normal books. Libraries will buy licenses of books, which allows x-amount of ebooks to be lend out (downloaded) at a time.

Just wondering how and when you have to "take it back". I hope they don't make a wraparound application which let you "delete" the ebook...
