They cost far more (whereas physical books are heavily discounted for libraries), they have licensing terms (limited circ or time period), and there’s the issue of hosting perpetual access materials. Physical books are just cheap, durable, and most importantly yours to do whatever you want with them (donate them, sell them, make crafts with them, etc.).
Oh, right. A conventional public library can’t just pirate all of their content, I suppose.
