Physical books are much more expensive to reproduce than an ebook. I don't think that libraries which stock ebooks will find much success in trying to control how many copies of their books are "out there" at any time. I think that they'd either allow members to simply get a copy of the ebook, or, as mahmud mentioned below, they would only allow access from within the library, and they'd try and regulate the amount of information you accessed.
