Use of Digital Editions in a lending library
Has anyone tried loaning ebook readers in a lending library?
I'm the computing officer in a lending library and I'm having difficulties with the Adobe Digital Editions 6 device restriction. We have 14 Sony PRS505's and wish to loan them to students. Our main e-book provider uses ADE and sets the PDF files to expire after a number of days. Thing is, because of the 6 device restriction in ADE, a user will have to try to stick to loaning the same pool of readers. Has anyone any suggestions? Jim? Are you out there? Heeeelp! Paul. |

This is not going to be a supported scenario - Devices are viewed as personal devices (and not group devices), and there are no workarounds that I can suggest for you to get this to work. (For instance I can suggest that activating to a set of three AdobeIDs and borrowing the books for the student, because this would be against the various Licensing Agreements)
