My comment: Please read paragraph 4 AND the sidebar "How an E-Book Gets Self-Published" (in the lower left corner of the web page), as well as see the graphic.

Quote:

"Amazon said on Wednesday that it would allow Kindle users to read e-books from more than 11,000 public libraries on the devices beginning later this year, a reversal of the company’s previous policy.

"Two major publishers, Simon & Schuster and Macmillan, have still not allowed their e-books to be available in libraries.
