I am on the wait list for 3 (which is the maximum) ebooks in the Halton Hills Library system. 2 have 8 people in front of me and one has nine. Assuming there is a 3 week per person wait I am looking at a 24 week wait for my first book. That is almost half a year! This seems a little ridiculous to me.
A quick perusal of all the ebooks in their system revealed that there is a wait list for "all" their ebooks. That is like walking into a library and it is completely empty. I think they either underestimated the demand for ebooks or they spent all their money on new bricks and mortar expansions and had none left over for electronic file licences.
