The primary problem is that the ebrary reader is Windows-only. They make it work on a Linux PC (with an Intel x86 chip) by using Wine. The N8x0 uses an ARM processor, so we can't run Windows programs. Sorry.
If they release a Linux version of the reader, you might be able to convince them to compile a version for the tablets. Depending on what kind of company they are (hey, they are actually beta-testing a Linux version!) they may say, "yes"...

I found this link and tried to do it on Xterminal but couldnt get it to work
http://www.ebrary.com/kb/users/linux_under_wine.jsp
I am wondering if it is possible in any way to be able to open these types of files on my n810. Or maybe in KDE?
Thanks guys!
