John Hubbard writes: “When I say ‘all-in’ with controlled digital lending, I’m referring to libraries being fully committed in supporting the widely endorsed practice of extending their existing lending policies for the physical realm into digital formats…. I think the CDL issue is one where, independent of whatever man-made laws can be found on the books, we have to ask ourselves, does it adhere to the purpose of why libraries, in this culture and in this society, have the rationale to exist?”
