Saw your post from the author who was happy people were using Libby. I'm torn as I understand the author is happy to get the license renewed, but libraries only get 26 loans on a digital license vs 60-80 loans on a physical copy. I love the convenience of digital books, but if taking out the physical copy is better for the library I'm willing to make the trip. Just looking for thoughts from others about it.

It depends on the license agreement the library has and its different for every one. Some renew annually, others renew by X amount of rentals. The library does what is best for them, and the more people use their services the more they can usually argue for more funding.

This is not universal, of course, but most of the librarians I know are ecstatic when people use their services.

Library worker here! PLEASE take advantage of Libby. We have these digital services because people use them. They're critical accessibility aids for many people and mean the library is an option for people who otherwise can't get to a physical location regularly.

Use Libby, visit your library if possible, vote in local elections and attend town council meetings - all of these make material differences to libraries by providing them with increased funding. Never feel guilty for accessing our online services. You're helping your library and so, so, so many people in you community when you use our resources, no matter if they're physical or digital

The more you (as in the whole general public) use a service, the more the library can use stats to point at their boards and say "give me money for this service! See, they use it!" So please use Libby, use hoopla, use kanopy, use your library!
