<div>I am not really going to try to answer this question other than to say that we don't really have contracts for books, CD's, DVD's, and audiobooks. We purchase the item and supply it for circulation.</div>

<div>There has been a lot of discussion about ebooks and HarperCollins on the PUBLIB discussion group. Anyone can read the discussion in the archive found at <a href="http://lists.webjunction.org/wjlists/publib/">http://lists.webjunction.org/wjlists/publib/</a>. It might be easiest to click on the Threads option and look for related subject headings. It is also possible to do a search of the list.<br>
