Hi all,
I'm a member of the ACT Library and have always been an avid borrower but am now also using their 'eBook' and 'audiobook' lending service. Probably more for the audiobooks as my daughter it quite taken with the concept of having books on her iPod. I have been listening to Ellis Peters and don't think you ever get too old to have a story read to you!
The few books I've borrowed have been quick to download and are duely selfdeleted at the due date - you get a choice of 14 or 21 days borrowing. They also only lend out a certain number at a time so I have had to wait for a couple of titles which seems a funny construct.
My brother works in the mining industry and he is looking to join this sort of library so reading this thread I am amazed that there has been so little uptake for the idea in Australia and will try to get him into my local library!
Cheers,
Mcsmith
