Certainly a good option for many, and my mum still mostly reads library books (large print ones). She buys the odd ebook to read on her iPad.

My wife also mainly reads Library books, either physical or as an ebook on her tablet. She does rather get plagued with long queues for many of them, especially ebooks.

Been decades since I've read a library book ... exceptions being the remaindered library books I have bought from overseas libraries ... ha ha.
