Subject:  Amazon's Kindle

Hi Folks, 

Several librarians here have expressed an interest in 
purchasing and eventually circulating the new Kindle machine by 
Amazon.com.  I just wanted to see how other libraries are addressing and 
progressing on the institutional use of this product?  There appears to 
be an issue regarding the circulation of a "loaded" Kindle to patrons.  
How have you addressed this?  Are there other issues we need to address?

Any help or advice will be really appreciated. 

Best wishes,  
Jack Montgomery
