Article - Library E-Book Checkouts Get a Major Boost

This article the authority of which I am uncettain, states that the digital content distributer will make it possible for libraries to lend Kindle books to their patrons.  There is no bias detected in this article, the intended audience is library staff, library patrons and e-book readers.
The article states that less than 15% of people in a recent survey indicated that they turned to libraries for their digital content and that earlier this year Amazon announced that it would be working with Overdrive in order to make it possible for libraries to lend Kindle books to their patrons.  the article is brief yet interesting to those persons interested in the digital world.
