"Lending" books on Kindle

my library sent me an email to say they now have ebooks available but that these are not compatible with the Amazon Kindle. Guess which I've got !!

I have never heard of this kindle lending! If anyone finally gets it to work I would be very grateful if they could post on this forum because it sounds excellent. What a clever idea

My library has informed us that they are likely to have e-books, but not compatible with Kindle. As the Kindle is the leading brand, they might not have a very big take-up. I have downloaded an application called Calibre which is supposed to convert from one format to another but haven't had cause to use it yet. Does anyone else know/use this?

I have downloaded it but have not had any success yet in converting any books.
It is useful for organising books.
