ALA's 2012 State of America's Libraries Report

The State of America's Libraries Report (view online or download PDF) documents trends in library usage and details the impact of library budget cuts, technology use, and the various other challenges facing U.S. libraries. The "New focus of ebooks" section (pp 17-21) reviews current trends in pricing plus limiting and in most cases denying eBook lending by the general trade industry and ALA's advocacy efforts in response to those trends.
