With a Kindle library book you don't ever have to connect to the computer if you don't want to--the book is available in your Amazon cloud and you can download it from there, and it will automatically open to the place you were at on the other device, with any bookmarks or notes available. If you later decide to purchase the book, or take it out from the library again, the bookmarks and notes are all available.

Precisely.

It's also worth noting that annotations are stored in the sidecar .sdr folder, easily accessible and transferable (to Kindles) via USB. If you so choose.
