No, I think they should still buy HC paper books for their patrons to read so that said patrons won't be boosting HC paper/e-sales due to total library unavailability for the books they read.
But they should get fewer multiple copies of the titles than they normally would have. Just enough to be a noticeable drop, without affecting service and driving borderline book-buyers to spend money on HC books because they can't read them for "free", which I'm sure HC would love.
