Kindle: Lend books - how it works

If you want to lend books from your Kindle to friends and family, this is only possible to a limited extent in Germany. We'll show you the options.

Lend books on Kindle: You have these options

• Kindle users have been lending their books to friends for 14 days since the end of 2010. Unfortunately, due to the legal situation, the function is not available in Germany.
• In this country, you can only lend your books through the family library. However, your books are not lent out, but put together with the other person.
• Lending therefore only makes sense if you and the other person want to read books together more often. However, more than two adults cannot join the family library.
