If you borrow, rent or hire something, you are not allowed to let other people use it, without explicit permission from the original owner.
If one knows for a fact that the owner allows this particular person use this item (or similar items) then one can lend or rent the item to that person.
Even though it's a Mitzva to let other people use your Sefarim (Torah related books), if you borrow a Sefer you may not let others use it.
If one borrows a Sefer and is given permission for others to also use it, only one person at a time may use it.
