My wife and I are avid Kindle users, with no desire to change to a different e-reader. So, it is very disappointing that Sumter County has no options for us. However, our daughter lives in Maryland and she was able to hook us up with a perfect solution. On a visit a couple years ago, we went to the Montgomery County library, and we were able to get a non-resident library card for $10 per year. We get full access to Libby, and all it has to offer for Kindle users.
