The library is a way that many people 'try out' authors. Then when they find authors they like, but also find the library doesn't have every book the author wrote, often go on to buy.
And it's true libraries buy a lot of books. Recently, I had a notice that an ebook I'd put a hold on was not available and that it wouldn't be available until another copy was purchased. Checked yesterday, and apparently another copy *has* been purchased.
