Bill, Probably not lifted from the local library rather purchased at a
Friends of the Library booksale. However and "ex lib" book is for all
practical purpose regarded as worthless in the used book trade and
should be priced as a "reading copy", at a fraction of the price charged
for a normal used book in very good condition. Sort of like the price
you'd expect to pay for a beater OM1, engraved and dented and with a
crop growing in the lens but still able to take usable pictures. Unless
it was specifically mentioned in the description as ex lib I would not
accept this book and wouldn't buy from this seller again. I suggest you
search http://dogbert.abebooks.com/abe/BookSearch for a selection of
good used books.
