Hi Christine,

We have far more print for our students than digital collections.  We subscribe to JLG ebooks for our school (grades 5-6) and I believe our elementary students do as well.  We also use Epic, but that is only available during the school day.  If you are looking for a percentage, I would say we are 80-90% print.  Our students still love to have the physical book in their hands.  Some of the older students might like or feel comfortable with digital ones...Not sure if this helps.

Respectfully,

Loretta Sullivan

Hello Librarians!  
I am building a new library program and am wondering what might be the industry standard for the percentage of the collection that is digital vs. print for all grades, K-12.
Thank you so much!
