Say hello to Prime Reading - Kindle owners can still borrow unlimited books from Amazon’s collection - if they’re Prime members, that is. And thus the free library for all Kindle owners is no more. As its name suggests, the program was very similar to a public library, except, of course, that an enormous corporation owned the books.Īs the Kindle grew increasingly more popular in the last decade, though, Amazon realized it could capitalize upon the all-you-can-read idea by slapping a monthly fee on it. ![]() The Lending Library launched in 2011 and provided Kindle users with a curated collection of eBooks that could be borrowed - one at a time - at no cost.

Amazon’s Lending Library for its Kindle devices will shut down on January 4, 2021, according to GoodEReader.
