Considering an e-reader for yourself or someone else? Before you make your purchase, it might be helpful to know which devices are library e-book friendly, and which are not.
Dedicated e-readers
Most of Burnaby Public Library’s e-book collection is available through OverDrive/LibraryToGo. OverDrive maintains a list of library e-book friendly e-readers on their website. Most e-readers use e-ink technology, which is easy on the eyes and allows you to read even in bright sunlight. Some e-readers have illuminated displays that allow you to read at night, without a lamp. Please note that Kindle e-readers are NOT library e-book friendly with OverDrive in Canada.
