Another issue libraries face is excessively high prices and restrictive purchasing models for eAudiobooks and eBooks. Libraries lend digital copies just like physical books — on a one-to-one basis. But the prices we pay for digital copies are exponentially higher.
And if you click on the right/left arrows just below this, you can scroll through some books with the pbook and library ebook costs. Some samples were:
David Baldacci,
