💸📚💻 Libraries reckon with high e-book costs (axios.com)

It costs the library $75 to get a single digital license of Harlan Coben’s latest novel, “Think Twice.” The e-book can be checked out by one patron at a time and the license expires after two years.

A physical copy costs just $16 and can remain permanently in the collection.

Big publishers are price-fixing consumer-gouging monoliths who should be brought to their knees in class action lawsuits. IMHO
