e-books, Kindles and more

We have recently purchased more Kindles, Sony e-readers and Nooks. Each of the 4 Kindles have over 60 books already loaded on them; each of the 3 Sony e-readers have 24 titles on them, and each of the 3 Nooks have 15 titles on them. As people check them out we load new titles on for them so the lists of titles just keep getting longer.
Many people have asked about loading e-book titles onto their own devices. We are in the process of making this happen with a company called Overdrive. Hopefully this will be available in the new year. However, because of licensing agreements, or lack thereof, (don't you just love legalese) the e-books will only download to a Sony or a Nook or similar device, not to the Kindle or iPad. Look for announcements of this program soon.
