Technology: Ebooks

I need to vent a little about the flack I receive on a regular basis about ebooks. Learners who want to order books via interlibrary loan tend not to be very happy when I tell them the book is available in Netlibrary or ebrary and therefore I can not fill their ILL request. I know ebooks still leave a lot to be desired, but they have a lot of pluses, too. They are easily accessible, searchable, and never have to be returned. Most of the learners don't really need to read the entire book anyway.

Hey, if I can get used to them, anybody can.
