[Web4lib] Request for info: Libraries that are circulating e-book readers

[Elena OMalley]

There was a presentation at NERCOMP about libraries loaning e-readers this past March. The pdf of the presentations is available. I believe their presentations also referred to other projects.

I believe the presenters would be willing to discuss their projects further, if you contacted them directly.

Hi, everyone
I'm looking for any info about libraries that are circulating e-book
readers.

We are especially interested in the use of Kindles or iPads in academic
libraries, but use of any type of reader in any type of library would also
be useful.

Many thanks for your help as we try to design envision how such a program
might work.
