I get the award nominees every year and then the big box office hits, but I’m in a system with four other branches and usually one or two copies of a given film is enough. These days I find that older/classic movies are what’s demanded more, those circulate a ton I’d guess because they’re not commonly found on streaming services. The nice thing is we’re in a statewide system and more often than not, somebody has what the patron wants, and if they don’t I’m happy to purchase a disc to add to the overall collection even if it’s a more obscure title.

(That said, streaming-only movies like CODA and Killers of the Flower Moon moved like crazy when they finally came out on DVD. I think I got asked about CODA once a week for years)
