I've been checking out and downloading audiobooks from the library for years, but never bothered with ebooks until about a month or two ago when it finally hit me

that I could use them on my EZ Reader (which I've had for about 6 months). Now the majority of my ebooks come from the library.

I feel very lucky to even have the option - I live in a rural area that has no library service at all - all the small towns in the area have their own little libraries, but there is no county-wide system like there is in most of the surrounding counties. Fortunately, the Seattle Public Library system has a great selection of ebooks, and offers cards to people who don't live within the city limits if they work or go to school in the city, so I was able to get one that way.
