I've borrowed quite a few books from the Toronto Overdrive library. I had no idea that they were pioneers in this regard. Or maybe Torontonians just love their ebooks? I had no idea that overdue fines were a significant portion of their budget. I thought it was just to keep people from hanging onto books for too long.
