E-books are good so long as the formatting quality is really high. I would also need to be able to access them on my ipad, as I don't want to have to read them on my computer screen. Some e-book access so far has been frustrating - for example reference books where only one volume has been scanned and uploaded. If it is cheaper to have the print copies then the library should take that route. I am for e-books overall so long as the access is as good or better than print and the quality of the book is at a high level, for example, as good as a Kindle book.
