Talk:DCMS consultation on e-lending in libraries

Please do use this page to discuss the potential submission to the consultation. Thank you. --Stevie Benton (WMUK) (talk) 14:01, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

Contrary to what is on the page at the moment.. the e-lending model doesn't fit Wikipedia certainly, but I am not sure the DCMS believe it would :D On the other hand, as a Wikipedian I strongly support e-lending! The ability to obtain reference material in digital form via the library system (i.e. for free) would help significantly both with research and for Wikipedia readers who want to follow the sources trail. Unless I have totally mistaken what this consultation is about I think it absolutely is a brilliant thing for editors and the movement (opening up access to knowledge). --ErrantX (talk) 15:38, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
