Question: if a book is "disappeared" from the library, is not the person that signed it out responsible for replacing or paying for it? If not, what the heck is all the security, Security Tag detectors, and Library cards for? Seriously. `Q

They can claim they returned it (and for the most part, we take their word for it, at the least the first time they make the claim) -- it could be taken off the shelves without being checked out -- it could be defaced in some not immediately noticeable way, so that it isn't possible to verify who damaged it.
Libraries with security systems have been robbed by throwing books out a window (you have to walk through the doors to set off an alarm) and any number of other ways.

Thanks Auchmull.
Of course, that first method you mentioned would require the JW purloiner to LIE -- ahem, I mean, committ SPIRITUAL WARFARE! :)

noni every bit helpsMy territory is the laundry mat next to the Chinese Restrauant I like. I go in and throw away most of the old Wt and Aw, except for a few that I leave 'example of cult propaganda' stickers on.
Go forth christian warrior!! battling cult devices while battling soiled laundry.
What do the stickers say and where did you get them

I think I'll buy one and donate it to the library.
Be aware the dubs sometimes donate their litter-ature to libraries too, to count a placement. Mine routinely get some of my pamphlets stuck inside them, heh heh. My local libraries often get anonymous donations of anti-JW books sent to them directly by Amazon.com, lol. Used books are cheap to donate, and Amazon will ship them to whatever address you specify, and it saves you the gas $ to bring it yourself.

My copy of C of C was sent to me free from a member of another fourm.I didn't pay any thing for it.So me donateing it if needed to my library will be another way for the kindness shown to me to be paid forward.
It was kinda odd though.When I asked for In Search of Christan Freedom The lady looked like she had never heard of it.It was never in my library systems computer.She found it on amozon.com right away but said it looked like no library in my county ever had it.All the librarys in my county are inter connected and loan books to each other.So now it will be avaliable for everyone who wants it in my county.

Dear apostate, my little contribution to the permeation of apostate literature was to write some. Perhaps you can check it out and get it into your local library. More info at www.dfmenow.blogspot.com
