Thank you for the responses. It’s the priciest item on our renewal list, but a straw poll of local library staff indicates lack of use and lack of interest in use.

Hey Dawn~
I decided to cancel it this next year. It was used so infrequently, I think I assessed that it was costing us about $300 a usage.
All my best,
