Actually, this sounds good for library expense management. Since books are more popular when they first come out (or are mentioned by Oprah, etc), the library could order a ton of books (I assume these 26 use books are pretty cheap) and then just extend the license on a few, once the demand dies down.

I was 45 out of 45 on the waitlist for The Chicago Way. I am currently #3. Good thing we weren't under the new system!
