Great thread on why it's good for libraries to buy more from indie presses. Stu knows his stuff on this.

According to analytics, the average level for books being borrowed less than twice in their first year of being in stock, nationally, is 20% of a library's stock size. In my service it's just under 10%; and in some sites where i send a lot of small press/"literary" stock it's less than 5%.
