Duh.

From the Beeb (via the fabulous Book2Book):

"Schools Across Kent Told To Borrow Books From Libraries:
Teachers will be able to borrow 100 books for eight weeks free of charge for students."

WTF? They had to pay for it before this?

Sorry, Kent, we already do that. In fact, we have been offering special services to schools and teachers since our Carnegie Library opened in Ottawa in April 1906. But maybe that's just 'cause we have enough "stock" (God, I hate when people say stock. It's the only British-ism I can't abide).
