What I know about library acquisitions could easy fill a thimble... maybe half way. But aren't libraries supposed to buy special versions of the books in their collections? I remember reading somewhere that libraries pay on average two and a half times cover price for titles in their catalog.

So it may be that they would not be allowed to take your retail purchased book.
