So they check for it? I've been wondering about this, because if you check it out then your name is attached to it, but if it gets lost inside the building then you're not stealing or defacing it and it might go unnoticed for a while.
Based on who works there, most likely. At my library, I don't know if something is lost unless someone tells me or I go looking to check it out myself. My department supervisors keep up with the collections, but they are looking to add to it not always see what's missing, especially a one off book. It is really sad that they would want to include such a book that rivals porn and kama sutra. Side note - at that board meeting that discussed the book and the challenge of it, the library lawyer had to close the board room doors so that outsiders didn't hear all the discussion about it. As an adult, I couldn't stomach a lot of what was quoted from the book.
Thank you for the insight. I'm not looking to destroy literature, I just thirst for justice and can't understand why the left is digging into the rainbow porn for kids genre. Fortunately my town is reasonable and wouldn't stock such books. If I'm wrong or another reader has encountered this problem, now we have some ideas.
In that case, how long would it take staff to notice if the book were dropped between the wall and a shelf, or kicked under a display?
Knowing that library system, they would ensure it's always in the collection. Personally, I would hope someone burns it.
