We are considering offering e-books in our libraries however we have been asked for figures to support this decision. I would be grateful if those libraries that already provide e-books could answer a few questions regarding e-book provision. 1. Did you undertake any user surveys before offering the service? 2. Did you set a level of uptake below which it would not be cost effective to offer the service 3. How successful has the uptake of the service been? 4. Do you loan out e-book readers? Finally have any libraries conducted a user survey on e-book provision and decided not to go ahead with the service?
