Hopefully the people who want to see more of certain titles are requesting them when they find the libraries selection lacking? I know my library is pretty good about accommodating patron requests when they can. Maybe not ideal, but they can't necessarily know you feel they're lacking in an area if you don't tell them.


It has to be tough. Especially with eBooks where some publishers have titles that expire. I mean HarperCollins is a "simple" 26 loans and it expires, but last I checked MacMillan was 52 lends or 2 years whichever comes first and Simon & Schuster is/was one year expire (or 1.5 years at 1.5 times the price for certain titles). Meaning if that title they bought from MacMillan or S&S only sees a limited number of lends over one/two years before it expires should they have perhaps spent that money elsewhere and balance that question with trying to be inclusive to all tastes.
