Saddle up, kids, because it looks like Amazon's [Kindle Library Lending](http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/20/kindle-library-lending-will-let-you-take-books-out-on-your-e-rea/) service is inching its way toward launch. According to the *Digital Reader*, the retailer's OverDrive-powered feature has begun rolling out to two Seattle-area libraries, where some users have already succeeded in downloading e-books from their local repositories. Early testers are also reporting that they've been able to access a wide collection of digitized works using the beta service, with equipped libraries reportedly boasting "thousands" of e-books. Neither Amazon nor Overdrive have formally announced a rollout, but we'll let you know as soon as we hear more.
