I talked to my local librarian, who is in charge of purchasing ebooks. She said each of the libraries in the consortiom buy their own books, and then make them available to everyone in the consortiom. She said she only buys bestseller ebooks.
The thing I find facinating (and am thinking of becoming involved in changing) is that all of the big villages are in one consortiom, and all of the little villages are in another consortiom. For example, my village (pop 7000) is between two villages of 100,000 each. The two neighboring villages are in one consortiom, and my little village is in a consortiom with distant, and similar sized, villages. Seems a strange way to run things.
