They also define the current as the integral of the current operator over the system, and not at the contacts as in a mesoscopic context. Notice that they have cited L. D. Landau and E. M. Lifshitz, Statistical Physics, Third Edition, Part 1, Course of Theoretical Physics, Sec. 126 (Butterworth Heinemann, Washington, DC, 1997) for the operator form of the generalized susceptibility; see p. 395, one sentence below Eq. (126.8) (which is the Kubo formula).
