But in your scenario, I frankly don't see what difference it makes at all. If your library is only going to buy one copy, they're only going to buy one copy. How long they'd have to wait to buy a second is irrelevant.
For most libraries which try to match as best they can purchases to demand, the size of the waitlist will help determine how many additional copies they license once the eight week waiting period is done.
I honestly don't get your point, here.  |
My point is, you say "most libraries which try to match", and I would be curious as to how that compares to libraries in general.
For example, I would have categorized my libraries as one of your libraries, but now, for MacMillan ebooks, they are not.
You may very well be right, which is why I keep saying "for my library". My library is for a relatively small town (probably above median income).
