E-Book Borrowing
E-book borrowing allows users to access digital books from libraries or online platforms. Instead of purchasing a book, readers can check out e-books for a limited time, similar to traditional library borrowing. This service often requires a library card or an account with an e-book provider, enabling users to read on various devices like tablets, e-readers, or smartphones.
Many libraries use systems like OverDrive or Libby to facilitate e-book borrowing. Users can browse available titles, place holds on popular books, and download them directly to their devices. This convenient option promotes reading while providing access to a vast collection of literature.
