Check Out Library Books Using Your Phone - eBookNewser
OverDrive, a digital book distributor for libraries and schools, has released apps for the iPhone and Android phones, so that readers can download library books directly to their phones.
Now this is an interesting idea. But imagine if the app was 99p and all the money gained for it was plied back into the country’s libraries. People could still use the library itself for free, but those who can afford a smartphone can no doubt afford this small charge. Just think how far all those pennies could go.
Come on government and publishing industry people. Innovate. We’re all waiting.
