The trouble is although you get billed for the book, the library does not replace it. I've had things on hold get cancelled with a note about "no longer available".
I've bought a lot of books from the thrift store that had library stamps in them.
- finder83 2y agoIt's very possible they don't replace them, but many libraries also have legitimate sells to clear books from inventory to make room. Usually over like a week or three day weekend once or twice a year, the last day having bags of books for $5. All of them have stamps/card holders/stickers designating the library. So those don't necessarily mean they were borrowed and never returned.
- WalterBright 2y agoYou may be right, but I wonder why they would remainder a book that was on hold.
