Amazon Partnering With OverDrive To Bring Kindle Library Lending To 11,000 Libraries Across The US

Who says Amazon is trying to kill the local library? The company's latest venture brings the power of the Kindle to public and educational libraries through a partnership with OverDrive. That sounds like love, not hate. Exact usage details weren't released, but patrons will be able to check out ebooks from their local libraries on all Kindle models and platform apps. The Whispersync technology will then preserve digital notes and bookmarks in case the book is checked out again or purchased through Amazon.
