This question was last posed several years ago. Things have potentially changed, I am wondering what people use now? The cost for a small (~350 person) congregation?
Thanks for any help

We subscribe to Overdrive which carries the books of almost every Christian publisher. It is very popular in our library. The only problem is the cost. We pay $2000 per year for the service and have to buy at least $2000 worth of books. It might be less for a smaller congregation. I know this is just about impossible for a smaller church. One possible solution would be for a group of church libraries in your area to go together in a consortium and share the cost. Check out the Overdrive web site and maybe give them a call and explain your particular situation and see what they say.
Also curious.
