Our local library has just recently started offering ebooks and downloadable audiobooks. So currently the number of ebooks and audiobooks to be downloaded is small.

I sent off an email to the main branch of our library just to let them know what a great service this was and I was looking forward to the development of the Overdrive Program. I immediately received an email back....everyone, from the developers of the program to the Chief Librarian were thrilled to have some feedback. I was asked all kinds of questions, from how I read my ebooks, what types of formats I preferred as well as the type of content I favored.

Maybe if you let your library know what you're looking for, this might be a deciding factor in the the type of content they will be purchasing in the future. It certainly can't hurt to let your library know what you would like to see available in their catalog.
