I don't know that this is neccessarily a big deal. Call me an elitist, but if someone can't find a copy of the latest ACOTAR book and has to check out Jane Eyre, is that the end of the world?

How about reference and textbooks? Latest law books, oops you didn’t actually understand that law because it changed. How about latest books on political theory and current events?
Libraries democratize knowledge and ensure that everyone has access. It’s not purely entertainment, libraries literally save lives and there are efforts in this country to erode them, vilify them, and defund them.

Maybe libraries will need to learn to prioritize. Because I've been to a LOT of libraries and in most of them you couldn't find a law book more advanced than Writing Your Own Will or Living Trust For Dummies written in the last 10 years.
