Yes - but do consider the possibility that this sort of notation will also add further value to an old book. There could be an mercenary angle, eg the possibility that this will bring in additional visitors to the Library.
This is the second paragraph from the article:
> Add one more title to that small list, as scholars recently discovered a copy of Holinshed's Chronicles of England, Scotland, and Ireland in the Phoenix Public Library, containing handwritten notes in Milton's distinctive hand. This makes the volume extra-special, since only two other books once owned by Milton also contain handwritten notes. The scholars detailed their findings in a new article published in the Times Literary Supplement.
