Currently we supply Douglas County Libraries and are about to add Califa to our list. A number of the larger libraries are now hosting their own lending platforms and buying their own ebooks rather than leasing them.

Our view is that if the major publishers are thinking of stepping back from supporting libraries, it's time for others to step forward. And as an author co-op we want to be in the forefront.
Bravo; and this is what should be supported
