What is online lending?
Many municipal libraries offer their customers an eBook lending service.
Smaller libraries often link up and start an online lending service as a group.
You can visit their websites to borrow the eBooks you are interested in and
download them to your tolino eReader.

Just like books, eBooks can only be borrowed if they are available. If another
customer has borrowed the eBook you want, you will have to wait until they
have "returned" it, i.e. the lending period has ended. How many eBooks can be
borrowed depends on how many licenses the municipal library has purchased

At the end of the lending period, your usage rights expire and you will no longer
be able to open the eBook.
Our recommendation: Always use the integrated web browser on your tolino
eReader to borrow eBooks online and download them. This ensures that no
information is lost, and you won't have to install additional software on your
