The PNB Project, initiated in 2012, aims to establish a robust model for lending e-books in libraries throughout France. Managed by DILICOM, this initiative focuses on facilitating digital content distribution while respecting the roles of various stakeholders, including booksellers, suppliers, and librarians. The project includes a pilot phase with extensive workshops to ensure seamless integration of e-books into library systems. By August 2013, the framework enabled libraries to lend digital titles via an efficient ordering process, enhancing accessibility to a wide array of e-books for public and academic use.
