Unified Discovery and Management of E-book Content and Lending
The lending of e-books continues to be an
activity of critical interest in public libraries.
As e-books gain ever wider popularity
by the general public, libraries have
been steadily working out the many problems
related to offering e-book services
similar to those offered for print materials.
As e-book content increases relative
to libraries’ other collection components
and services, libraries increasingly want
more integration into their existing strategic
patron interfaces and management
systems rather than treating e-books as an
isolated service.
