The library of the future is coming to Texas this fall. The idea seems cool but I'm not sure how well loaning out e-readers is going to work.
Instead of aisles and aisles of books there will be aisles and aisles of computers and gadgets. At the start, it will have 100 e-readers available for circulation and to take out, and then 50 e-readers for children, 50 computer stations, 25 laptops and 25 tablets on site.
