[quote=Anonymous]Librarian here. Hoopla is crazy expensive because it’s a pay-per-use model. So the library pays every time you check out a book. This was somewhat manageable for library budgets when e-books (and audio) were newer and less popular, but has become unsustainable. Many libraries across the country are dropping Hoopla. For Libby, I do what people here have already recommended: 1) I have multiple cards and place the max holds on each. 2) When I have no holds in, I just search what’s available and listen to something random. This works for me because I’m not in a rush to read any particular thing and go through 3+ audiobooks a week. [/quote]
