Ann (annrumsey) | 16931 comments Some of the previously reluctant Publishing Houses are participating with Libraries again to allow lending of eBook format books, some offer their backlist only, some include newer books, some not all libraries.
"Macmillan to Offer Entire E-book Backlist to Libraries (Frontlist titles will not be included in the program at this time. )
Last month Penguin announced that it had reinstated more than 17,000 titles for lending through OverDrive. In May of this year, Hachette opened its entire catalog for lending. In April, Simon & Schuster, the final holdout in the library e-book market, launched a pilot with vendors 3M and Baker &Taylor."

Ann (annrumsey) | 16931 comments We knew what you meant, Amy!
I have been excited to see more selections on Overdrive too. I have seen some titles much sooner / closer to release I think.
