off to the doctors in a bit to get immunizations and discuss whether or not some things i've noticed are side effects, and then after that, off to another doctor to have my innards peeked at. my glamorous life, eh? in between i may try to drop a bra off to be repaired and return a library book and inquire exactly how upset the library is with me. [wince]

oh, speaking of library books-- one of the library systems here in the cities (dakota county) is offering ebooks in nook format to be checked out. i found this out yesterday and have only barely restrained myself from acquiring one. because, really, it would totally pay for its self in library fines, and darned quick, too. anyone know if other ereaders are going to work with libraries?

Depends on the format they are lending in. Most seem to have settled on EPUB, and most current e-book readers (including the Nook, the Sony Reader, and AFAIK the Kindle) all read that format.

This is what our library does. You can put EPUB on a kindle by, hm, running it through mobi creator I think. I'm thinking about trying this but I read so slowly that the 3-or-4 week time frame probably won't work for me, so I haven't bothered yet. (I mostly don't get real library books, either, for this same reason).
