Library Journal reported that they heard from Amazon about the legality of libraries loaning Kindle ebook readers, and the response is, well, goofy.
Amazon spokesman Drew Herdener told LJ that a loan of a Kindle without content is OK but sharing a device loaded with content “with a wide group of people would not be in line with the terms of use.”
Herdner refused to discuss individual enforcement issues with libraries that are currently loaning the much-talked about machines.
