Schools, E-Readers, Public Library Books

[Judy Hauser]

I am curious to know if schools are considering the ability for e-readers to use public library books when purchasing. Is that a factor? Or, since that requires checking out books with library cards/accounts is it not a factor?

Following your line of thought and as a school librarian, I would love to have electronic books to loan in any ebook reader. I am still researching to make my mind. But how I get the stadistics of the books read whern each reader is loaded of a lot of them without asking each kid what he read? Maybe he took it for a title and read another or others that he found there.
