Will $0.99 ebooks make library loans less needed?
With the increasing availability of cheap ebooks that can be bought for as low as $0.99, will library loans still be needed, at least for new titles?

Patrons who loan a limited number of titles per year might find it more convenient and a better value to buy the same books online rather than loan them. The costs of visiting libraries in person, such as gas or public transportations and time, may be comparable or higher than those of cheap ebooks.
