What's more interesting - can I legit share my private collection of ebooks I paid for? If physical libraries can - why cannot I run a small digital one. With no ads served.
- travisp 14y agoLibraries do not pay the same prices as individuals. In fact, they pay higher prices for ebooks for the license to lend them out. If you wish to enter into such an agreement with publishers as well there's nothing stopping you.
- ommunist 14y agoAh, ok. Then I would serve ads. How much more the library pay?
- ommunist 14y agoThis one is wicked. Lincolnshire public library lends self-destroying books. http://www.guardian.co.uk/government-computing-network/2011/apr/14/public-library-ebook-service-grows-cilip-lincolnshire http://www.guardian.co.uk/government-computing-network/2011/...
