I asked at Sumter/Pinellas library last week about ebooks. They say coming soon, perhaps after the first of the year. I didn't get a warm, fuzzy feeling that their collection was going to be very extensive. Time will tell.

When my FLOP subscription expires next March, we'll see if the Sumter fee/offering is a better alternative.
Wow that is quite an increase but like you said V07 still a bargain since we usually read at least one book a week each,(more when we are out working in the BUSH). We will probably stick with Free Library of Philadelphia since they have such a wonderful selection.

PS
see you in December.
