I know what you mean about Bowley. I was in the British Library, ~ 25-30 yrs ago, waiting for a book, when I stumbled upon Bowley's 1901 Elements of Statistics-- far ahead of it's time for using smoothing. I'm pretty sure I digitized the data.

DO NOT DO THIS. We have not gone digital-only, but I AM a digital initiatives librarian, so I work with the digital side of libraries every day.
A digital-only library is built under the assumption that all information worth having has been digitized/is born-digital. This is NOT TRUE.

Requesting help from librarians:
Boss wants info on college libraries going digital-only.
Who is digital-only?
How's it going?
Have libraries gone digital to later reintroduce print?

This is so depressing. I've rarely left a library with only the book I went there for--more often, you comb nearby stacks and find other works you didn't know to look for.
Someday we'll have digitized everything, though, and nobody will ever wander that maze again.

"Even a building like the Mansueto Library conveys certain priorities: The stacks are all underground and unbrowsable, so that the reading materials need to be retrieved electronically—rendering the visible half-domed building little more than something interesting to look at."
