Comics are hot, especially manga, but comics content challenges are also on the rise, while access and affordability issues persist. Digital access to comics and manga is a viable option, but only when publishers and creators believe in the full value of the library market and make their titles available in multiple formats, at affordable prices. There is a lot of work to be done, but no librarian is alone in their efforts, and the monetary payoff is worth it for vendors and publishers if they remain focused on reaching and engaging new readers at every possible opportunity.
