[LM_NET] TECH->Is there a listserv/blog for librarians and ebooks because I am feeling a tad overwhelmed.

Pursuant to School Board policy and administrative procedures, this e-mail system 
is the property of the School District of Collier County and to be used for 
official business only.  In addition, all users are cautioned that messages sent 
through this system are subject to the Public Records Law of the State of Florida 
and also to review by the school system.  There should be no expectation of privacy.

Feeling just a bit overwhelmed this morning. Our first ebook reader, a Nook, has 
been in constant circulation, even with a limited number of titles.

We've just added our second and I have some questions.

Not sure how and what to load on the 2nd one. Same titles? Different titles? Not 
even sure how the 2nd Nook will allow me to load titles as it was bought through a 
purchase order and not through a credit card.

Also getting overwhelmed by the idea of free titles available out there. Should I 
load the Star Wars Return of the Sith series? I can download one for free from 
Barnes and Noble, but I've since found out that you can download 3 in the series 
from starwars.com

Has anyone downloaded a graphic novel on to the Nook? I found a site called 
www.wowio.com but not sure of the suitability of what they have. I tried 
downloading the Art of War but not sure if it's even a "real" version of the book.

Now I am being asked by a staff memberif our titles can be loaded on to someone's 
personal reader and I don't have a clue as to the answer.

Any answers would be appreciated. Any answers to questions I haven't even thought 
of would be appreciated!

TIA,

Adam
