- Did you know your library can't buy eBooks from many publishers?
-
Sadly, unlike a regular person, a library cannot pay Amazon or Barnes & Noble for an eBook and then lend it out to people. We can buy a printed book from these companies, stick it on the shelf, and lend it out--but digital content is treated differently by the publishers and the companies who manage digital content licensing. We desperately want to offer you these eBooks, but the companies won't let us. As your library, we commit to continuing advocacy for change in these policies.
The following publishers currently refuse to sell or license eBooks to libraries:
Think that’s wrong? We do, too. Email Maria Sunio at msunio@ci.upland.ca.us for more information.
You can also write to or call each publisher to register your opinion. For your convenience, the addresses are provided below.Macmillan Publishing

- Upland Public Library's Wish List on Amazon.com
-
Our Librarians have created a list of these books that you can purchase through a special Amazon.com Wish List. By donating one of these books to the Library, you can be sure that you’re meeting an immediate and specific need. (Note: Although Amazon.com will suggest additional books for your consideration, please do not purchase books for the Library that are not specifically requested on the Wish List.)
When you buy books on the Library’s Amazon.com Wish List, they will be mailed directly to the Library. The Library will place a book plate on each book letting future readers know it was a gift to the Library. In addition, you will be notified by the Library that your generous donation was received. Your donation will be tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law.
If you would like a personalized book plate dedication or be the first to read your donated book (First Loan program), please follow the additional steps below:- Go to the Library's Amazon.com Wish List page.
- Select the books you want to add to the Library’s collection; then proceed to the checkout.
- At the bottom of the "Shipping Details" page, choose "Gift Options."
- Enter the book plate information and/or the words, “First Loan” and your email address in the text box on the right side of the page.
- Complete your purchase. Once the book is processed and ready to check out, you will receive notice that the "first loan" book is on hold for you!
For more information on donating a book through the Amazon.com Wish List program, please call (909) 931-4203 or e-mail us.
Thank you for your support. - Save Our Subscriptions (SOS)
-
The Upland Public Library is reviving our Save Our Subscriptions (S.O.S.) program, inviting individuals, families, and organizations to pick up the price for their favorite magazine subscription. Because of fiscal challenges, we must appeal to our community. Contributing to the S.O.S. program is a wonderful way to share your support of the Upland Public Library with the entire community.
Our magazine collection is heavily used, but unfortunately, this collection is becoming more and more expensive to maintain. Price increases, coupled with the Library’s ever-shrinking budget, mean that we need your support more than ever.
If you or your family (or club or business) would like to subsidize a magazine subscription for the year, the entire community will benefit from your generosity. Your gift will be publicly acknowledged on each magazine’s shelf label unless otherwise requested. Individual issues of a donated subscription may be acknowledged if the donor can also provide the labels. All contributions are tax deductible.
Working together, we can provide a stronger Library for all!
How can I help? You can choose to make a general donation. Or, if you wish to support a particular title, a certain age group, or field of interest, please contact the Administration Office at (909) 931-4203 to discuss these options. - Book Cellar Inventory
