is there an easy way to see or search for books that are available for this?


You can do this from Kindle.. Go to Kindle Store and then to Owner's Lending Library. There are categories and subcategories and books are sorted by bestselling


I think it's a great question. I have an older generation Kindle 2, so do about half of my kindle shopping via a computer. It's too slow otherwise. (More specifically, browsing via a computer, specific purchases sometimes through the kindle.) I'd love to be able to filter to the lending library through my desktop.

If I have to browse lending title over 3G, I'm less likely to do it. Maybe that's the point.


It's for any book available on the Kindle.


That doesn't seem to be the case.

" ... the available library consists of more than 5,000 titles, including more than 100 current and former New York Times bestsellers."


some of the kindle product pages have a specific section mentioning the borrow feature. For example http://www.amazon.com/Fast-Food-Nation-ebook/dp/B003G83UI2/r...

However I don't see this on most of the kindle pages, so I assumed it was only available for specific books.
