  • As an aside, if you’re going to request that the library buy any materials, no matter what they’re about, try to let them know that you want them to purchase physical materials. By that I mean print books, Blu-Rays, CDs, etc. When a library purchases a physical item, they can do anything they want with it and they can keep it until it falls apart. They can’t do that with digital items, which need to be licensed and re-licensed again to keep the items in circulation. Not only is it an advantage for the library to own a physical object, it’s often less expensive to buy print and physical than it is to license eBooks and digital content.
