You may be wondering why you cannot find many current bestsellers available to checkout for your eReader.   Several publishers do not sell their digital books to libraries.  Libraries can purchase a paper copy and circulate the book but cannot buy a digital book from Amazon or any other vendor and circulate the book.  Traverse des Sioux Library System is advocating for change and so can you by contacting the following publishers who restrict or deny libraries from buying electronic versions of their book.
