Lending library from Amazon



The US online retailer Amazon.com launched the Kindle Owner’s lending Library early this November. Kindle owners with an Amazon Prime membership will get free access to the company’s new digital book library service.
  The service will give the users a complete access to over 5,000 books from a variety of categories, which include 100 current and former New York Times bestsellers. Prime account members can borrow at least one new book for a month for free, and members can enjoy the offer of free two day shipping which will be fast and reliable. Prime Members will also have an access to Amazon’s Prime instant video service. An Amazon prime membership cost $79.99 a year. A free trial is available for new users, while subscribing to the service cost $79.99 per year.
The new lending program is not compatible with ipad, Android tablet and smartphones that run the kindle apps. With the kindle book app, users can save their notes and bookmarks in the borrowed books, which can be used if users make a purchase or re-borrow the book.
