The Right to e-Read Day!

Today is the day - The Right to e-Read Day!

If, like EBLIDA, you want:

• all citizens – not just those who can afford it – to benefit from free access to e-books in libraries!
• library users to benefit from the latest e-books as they do with printed book!
• libraries to buy e-books at fair prices and on reasonable terms!
• authors to receive fair remuneration for the lending of e-books to the public. 

Sign the online petition at http://www.change.org/en-GB/organisations/eblida.

Look for the Petition in your own language.

This will help to make our ´Right to e-Read´ day a big success!
