No, it won't be hard. I actually can't remember when I bought my last book.
After buying half the Forgotten Realms library (last year, and the end of 2013, during the huge Kobo unlimited use coupouns), I started thinking: Why should I buy even more media (movies, books, music) in advance? I might never get around to using it.
The point is: I like having a huge library, but I have noticed that there is no excitement in browsing your own library. Let's say, you could get together with 100 people, and everybody would contribute 100 books. You'd instantly have a 10.000 book library, which will be great to browse, because of one reason: you don't know what's in there.
I have a library of around 800 books now, but because I've fixed the metadata (and layout, where necessary) of each and every one, there is no point in browsing this library. I exactly know what is in it already. Mention a book, and I can instantly tell you if I have it or not.
