Why do you only have some books in a series for eReader and not the rest? I enjoy reading the entire series (Harry Bosch and Women's Murder Club)

Answer

Libraries license access to eBooks and eAudiobooks, rather than purchasing actual eBook and eAudiobook files. Publishers set the license limits (typically for a number of checkouts or an amount of time) and when the license expires, the title is no longer available to borrow. Libraries share available funds among new titles, backlist titles and purchase requests, prioritizing new titles. Licenses often cost four to five times more than a physical book or DVD. When a title’s popularity wanes, it is not cost-effective to renew the license.

Remember to sign in to Libby/Serra Digital Download Library to see all the titles available to you.
