What titles are you thinking of?

This is famed for having been a high-advance commercial flop, but is still, in paper, in loads of libraries:

Of course, no Overdrive.

Virtually all libraries have the James Bond books, in paper only because of Amazon, as a publisher, not cooperating with Overdrive, or 3M, or Axis 360. Most paper copies were purchased before Amazon got the rights, but I'd like to see your evidence that libraries refuse to replace copies as they wear out.
