Why Can't I Get Most eBook Bestsellers from the Library?

[Annie Lee]

Wondering why you can't find The Casual Vacancy, The Generals, Killing Lincoln or many other hot titles on ebook to check out? They simply aren't available to libraries from publishers known as The Big 6. The only one of The Big 6 to offer titles to libraries, Random House, charges on average $80 for a one-copy, one-use title.

The Kansas State Library has created a page on Facebook to bring this situation to light to library users. Libraries have been fighting this for some time, but we need our patrons to know too!
