Possible, but tricky. You could have libraries buying into certain books. They might say that they want to buy into books A, B and C, but don't want books E and F. It would only be fair that since they didn't buy into books E and F, that library's patrons shouldn't have access to books E and F, otherwise other libraries would have to shoulder the burden. Another library might say that they will buy into books A, E and F but not books B and C.
