Hmmm, if I remember correctly, Penguin announced they would get back into library lending, but it would be a select set of books, nothing recent. Can't remember where I saw it, though...
Likely it was somewhere here or on DearAuthor.com - my two sources for all things ebook. |

Maybe the Library of Congress is the official cultural institution of preservation, at least here in the USA, but when the zombie apocalypse or global warming/freezing occurs, it will be the local library that gets and keeps civilization going again. (Which is why we need paper books as well, I guess) Last edited by GlenBarrington; 04-02-2013 at 10:10 AM. |
