I'd say probably so. Where I live, ebooks aren't available from the library, and I've been looking into what it takes to get ebooks from the nearest county library system that offers it.
As far as Macmillan's stance, I don't see how ebooks from the library are any different from paper books from the library. They still are getting paid for each copy, and the reader doesn't pay, unless there is a fine (which, Macmillan would never see anyway). Only real difference, is ebooks lift the possibility of late fees, since they autoexpire, and "return" themselves.
