Online book rental in India
Online book rental refers to a service wherein users rent books via the internet. Users browse books online and have their choices home-delivered, rather than physically visiting a library to borrow a book. This e-commerce model is very similar to the popular video rental service provided by the California-based Netflix. Online book rental is gaining popularity in India, with a number of websites offering free doorstep delivery for a small monthly fee.〔(Delhi / NCR Plan ). INDIAreads. Retrieved on 2012-08-08.〕 The popularity of such websites can be attributed to increasing internet usage in the country; India is expected to have the third-largest number of internet users in the world by 2013.〔(India to have 3rd largest number of Internet users by 2013 – The Times of India ). Timesofindia.indiatimes.com (2009-07-26). Retrieved on 2012-08-08.〕 Statistics for the publishing industry are also promising. India is the world's third-largest market for English books,〔(Publishers look to China and India to help them weather recession | Books ). The Guardian (2009-04-22). Retrieved on 2012-08-08.〕 and its entire book market—in English, as well as regional languages—is estimated to generate Rs. 10,000 crore annually.〔(Literary Review : New horizons, new challenges ). The Hindu (2009-01-04). Retrieved on 2012-08-08.〕 The online book market in India is expected to grow at 30–35% annually for the next five years.〔(Indian online book market pegged at Rs 59 crore; expected to grow by 35% a year ). alootechie.com (2009-11-03).〕
== Rental system ==
Online book-rental services save time by delivering books to a member's home or office. In addition to convenience, the service also offers an ease-of-use benefit; membership on most websites involves a simple registration form and payment through bank transfer or cash on delivery. This is important in a market that does not yet trust internet-based monetary transactions. Once membership is paid the user logs in to browse books, and clicks the "rent" button to receive the chosen books at home. The books are collected when the user logs in to indicate that he or she has finished reading. Another advantage of online rental services is that most do not have any due dates or late fees; borrowers may keep books for as long as they wish, provided they pay the regular subscription.
This era is changing, edits being made with education book selling. Engineering books are often taken on rent for a semester or 2 and returned after use. With the online space roaring, newer start ups have emerged in online book renting. In engineering book stores, you order books and pay Cash on Delivery, after usage you collect back up to 70% of the invoice back.
