If this is the only feature you're particularly looking for, it's available on at least some traditional e-readers, like Kobo - long press to choose dictionary definition, translation, or Wikipedia or Google search. (It's been a while since I fiddled around on a Kindle but perhaps someone else will chime in on that.)

Modern Kobos also integrate directly with Overdrive in some countries, since you mentioned you use that for library books.
