The easiest would be if they confirmed that the libraries don't need special editions and they can just buy at fair market value.

Buying at fair market value would mean that they couldn't lend the books. You'd need to say that they were allowed to buy the book at the price offered to the general public, and, additionally, that they would have the right to lend it out to the public at no additional cost.
