In Scandinavia they can lend out an unlimited amount of copies, libraries pay a price per borrowed copy, in Sweden it amounts to €2 a copy. Hence, libraries have now implemented restrictions that limits a borrower to one or two copies a week. So if you want to borrow an eBook and you haven't reached your limit you will never be rejected or put on a waiting list.
