Possibly, the regular patrons of the library simply have different tastes and are eagerly awaiting their hold #89 of 534 on a Stieg Larsson book.
Or given that the main reason why people go to the internationally available libraries is if their own local ones don't lend ebooks/have poor selection, it takes a certain amount of ebook savvy to even know to apply, and anyone who knows that much about ebooks and wants to read Robert Heinlein has probably bought a chunk of his books DRM-free from Baen already.
