Why are there waitlists on audiobooks and digital books?

199 views

Got my library card and everything that I want to read or listen to has months long waitlists. We know we can make as many copies as needed. The library is also taxpayer funded and not for profit. What gives? Is it some copyright nonsense?

The terms of the license issued to the library only allows a fixed number of copies to be accessible simultaneously.
