Leslie DeLoose, reference and community services librarian for the Richmond Memorial Library in Batavia, New York, writes a monthly column for The Daily News. In today's edition, she included an encouraging statement:
' Early word is that Kindle owners will be able to borrow eBooks from the library in September. This is on the library’s webpage and is administered through OverDrive. Watch for details. '
I didn't find it on their webpage, but her written word is definitely good to read.
She may be basing it on Overdrive CEO Steve Potash's dropped hint at their Digipalooza event, or she may, in her position, know more (which is very likely),and it's stated in a definite way, so there is hope, at least here :-)

NOTE: TO AVOID SPAM being posted instantly, this blog uses the blogger.com "DELAY" feature.
Am often away much of the day, and postings won't show up right away. Posts done to use referrer-links may never show up.
Usually, am online enough to release comments within a day though, so the hard-to-read match-text tests for commenting won't be needed this way.
Feedback and questions are welcome. Thanks for participating.
Technical Problems?
If you're having problems leaving a Comment, Google's blogger-help asks that you clear the 'blogger.com' cookies on your browser's Tools or Options menu bar and that will fix the Comment-box problems (until they have a permanent fix).
IF that doesn't work either, then UNcheck the "keep me signed in" box -- Google-help says that should allow your comment to post (it's a workaround to a current bug).
Apologies for the problems.
TIP: There's a size limit. If longer than 3500 characters or so, in a text editor, make two posts out of it.
