I didn't know that; looking up the rules for Public Lending Right at plr.uk.com, they seem to pay European authors (in the EEA). There are similar schemes elsewhere, I think. [Edit: Snap!]

It will be interesting to see whether there is a marked increase in library usage once ebook lending takes off. I tend to only go to the library for books that I can't practically get otherwise, but if there were ebooks, I'd borrow them all the time.
