S & S Expands LIbrary Program

Simon & Schuster has expanded their library program allowing unlimited use, one user per copy for a year, and inlcudes and option to buy with a percentage benefiting the library that lent the book. Publishers Weekly tells the tale. The general reaction was that that this was an itsy-bitsy step, rather than a giant stride, but change was good. Libraries are anxious to get ebooks on favorable terms as the balance of readers shifts.
