Purpose – This paper aims to explore current trends in e‐book lending in US academic libraries and describes the Kindle pilot for interlibrary loan at Eastern Washington University.

Design/methodology/approach – The author surveys US libraries on e‐book lending practices and conducts a Kindle pilot program. Findings – E‐book licensing agreements need to be re‐evaluated and interlibrary loan staff should be included in those negotiations.
