The IA loaned digital copies of books they'd scanned. Only a certain amount of copies could be loaned at one time due to stupid copyright bullshit
During the pandemic they allowed unlimited copies to be loaned out at any time which made the copyright mafia big mad
You can if you aren't a piece of shit who equates legality with morality.
