I googled Kindles and it seems that at least at some libraries the Kindle Fire works at libraries here.

The Kindle Fire is NOT an e-reader, it is an Android tablet running the Kindle reading app. The app, like the Kindle e-readers, is compatible with the Overdrive ebook service that many libraries use.
Also, when you go to a third-party store to look at e-readers (Amazon or any other brand) - be sure to take ANYTHING the salespeople tell you with a grain of salt. I am sure that there salespeople out there somewhere who know something about the devices, but I have heard some pretty ridiculous things about e-readers at both Best Buy and Office Depot.
