The Bibliofuture website is one dedicated to exploring  issues regarding electronic book readers and libraries.  Included on the website are links to library specific ebook articles and information about ebook software and hardware.  In early October, Bibliofuture included a new page "Library Standard."  The purpose is to generate discussion, leading to the creation of a document which would define the minimum amount of features that an ebook reader should have to meet the needs of libraries.  In addition, it will also strive to outline the minimum rights that should be accorded to an ebook owner or user.   An initial draft has been created to serve as a foundation for discussion.

I would encourage all of you to take a look at this in-process document and send your proposed modifications and additions to bibliofuture@yahoo.com.
