Recently the Central Library, Krishna Kanta Handiqui State Open University procured two Apple's IPad 2 for promoting the use of E-books among the faculty members. This is the first step towards this direction in the country (correct me if I am wrong). It also placed order for procuring Amazon's Kindle DX and Barnes and Noble's Nooke Color. Both these two devices hopes to be arrived within this month itself.
The e-book reading devices soon will be issued to a selected readers. If the attempts become successful then the Central Library, KKHSOU will further extend its services in this direction.

Great News !!! This is future of the library, library without walls... with unrestricted access (condition apply - system should automatically understand who to give access and whom not)...comming days library will not be a standalone entity in any education institutes it will be integrated with campus managment system, online learning management system, etc. Traditional library and digital library will be integrated (concept of traditional library will not go so easily... still many prefer to read newspaper instead of e-newspaper...)...but for a librarian it is a challenge to meet the requirement of new trends in the library. BEST OF LUCK !!!
Great news

Do you have a provision to issue the IPad, just like books?
it is issue for faculty and students both but only for reading purpose in library.
