Also ebook licences for libraries expire, so often you can't get the earlier books in a series.
The licencing is too restrictive, though there should be a per loan royalty, like on paper books in UK and Ireland. OTOH, the Internet Archive making up its own rules doesn't work either.
Here the libraries can only buy paper books from the publisher. They can't shelve donated or S/H books. That's overly restrictive. The small royalty per loan isn't.
The publisher should get no info apart from number of times loaned. Not the branch, person or date.
