What does the library do with all those copies of new books?

My library system has 200 copies of The Lost Symbol (with more than 1100+ users on hold). That’s immense!!

In a few years, there’ll probably be only 20 copies of The Lost Symbol. I’ve always seen libraries order massive amounts of books (never this many though) and then they’re slowly depleted. Some are damaged and lost and stolen, no doubt. But what do libraries do with the rest of them?

What was the chronological order in which the new testament books were written?

I’ve heard that Revelation was written before some of the epistles, but that those who compiled the different books, and made what we know now as the bible decided that Revelation should be the last book. Can anyone shed any light on this?
